  26. CLOSING REMARKS • The Podhale system represents interesting and complex geological and geothermal structure • Offers good reservoir and exploitation conditions for a large-scale geothermalheating and other uses • Geothermal heating project has already resulted in important ecological benefits expressed by significant reduction of emissions generated so far by coal burnt for heating • Ecological, social and economic benefits will prove the purposefulness, feasibility and reliability of using geothermal energy in Poland and several other European countries

  27. The end Thank you very much for your attention!

  28. GEOTHERMAL AS PART OF DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIES OF THE PODHALE REGION • Important agent of the sustainable development • Factor which should stimulate tourism coherent with world tendency to develop various forms of recreation using local resources and tourist attractions • Chance for new jobs at local employment market • Geothermal project realized along with the complex project of water–waste management

  29. System based on geothermal heat (75-80%), gas used in peak periods(more on 9th March)

  30. Heating networks* • Geothermal heating system consists of 3 main circulation loops: • 1. Geothermal circulation • Standard pressure 40 bar in Base Load Plant and 64 bar behind injection geothermal pumps • 2. Network water circulation. Standard pressure 16 bar • 3. Boiler circulation in Peak Load Plant. Standard pressure 6 bar • To compensate large differences in ground topography (670 – 930 m a.s.l.) and to keeppressure not exceeding 16 bar, the network water system was divided into 4 pressure zones • Distribution pipelines - preinsulated pipes with small heat losses (drop lessthan 2°C on a distance of 14 km) • All pipelines of DN 100 and more in diameter are equipped with the leakage detection system • 90/50°C heating network (56 km) built practically from scratch - prior to the project, only the part of Zakopane was provided with a heating network • Due to the great area covered by the project, the construction of the heating networksinvolved a major amount of expenditures (ca. 60% - 30 Mio USD)

  31. Groups of heat consumers depending of thermal power demand* • Individual households - capacities from several to a dozen kWh • Equipped with dual-function plate heat exchangers (warm-water production for central heating and domestic water, in a flow system without a hot-water bunker) • ·Medium consumers (boarding houses, offices, schools, public buildings, etc.) • ·Large consumers (buildings heated formerly by local coal-based boilers) • Equipped with compact dual-function plate heat exchangers, and automatic weather-sensitive system and programming many functions such as night drop, wind impact, etc. • All heat exchangers equipped with heat meters Compact heat exchanger for individual households

  32. ECOLOGICAL EFFECTS, END OF 2002 Zakopane and Nowy Targ – main cities of Podhale region - SO2emissions in 1999-2001 (coal-based heating systems). Significant SO2drop in Zakopane since December 2001 thanks to initiating geothermal space heating (Nowy Targ continues the coal-based heating system)

  33. SOCIAL ASPECTS OF GEOTHERMAL SPACE HEATING INTRODUCTION • Project accompanied by information and education • Involvement oflocal authorities • Cooperation and support from the community and Social Geothermal • Committee of Banska - first geothermally heated locality in a country • Benefits and advantages indicated by geothermal heat consumers: - Considerable comfort of operating the heating facilities -Greater possibility of regulation of temperature inside rooms - Possibility of energy use bservation, which influences its saving - Limitation of air pollution (particularly visible in winter –clean snow) - Geothermal heating in buildings attracts tourists for hire of rooms

  35. HISTORY AND CURRENT STATE OF THE PROJECT • Main items realised in 1995-2005: • 2 new wells: productionand injection • Well tests and acidizing treatments in 5wells previously drilled • Geothermal Base Load Plant • Gas Peak Load Plant • DN 500 main transmission network, 14 km long connecting the above Plants • Rebuilding and growth of the distribution networks in Zakopane and several villages • Conversion of individual, large heat consumers, coal and coke boiler houses on heat exchangers units • 3D-seismic survey for exploited sector of the system aimed at proper siting of new wellsand gain information on tectonic reservoir structure and flow directions

  36. Outlays of investment and sources of financing, 1995 -2002 • 1995 –2002 capital expenditures: 53 million USD  • Financing: Polish and foreign sources (share capital, grants, loans, credits) • High percentage of grants, almost 50% • Part of funds comes from Ekofund - established on the basis of the Polish • foreign dept extinguished for ecological purposes

  37. ECONOMIC ASPECTSOF GEOTHERMAL SPACE HEATING INTRODUCTION Price comparison – heat from geothermal vs.other carriers • The production cost of 1 GJ loco Geothermal Base Load Plant - 2.5 USD • In the cost structure of producing 1 GJ of heat, electricity and gas amount 25% • Price of 1 GJ – about 10 USD– comparable with coal, lower than other traditional fuels • High percentage of expenses (10%) connected with new property tax (charged on built structures) introduced in 2002

  38. Outlays of investmentand sources of financing, 1995 -2002 PHARE– Poland Hungary Aid for Reconstruction, NFEPWM – National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management, GEF – Global Environmental Fund, USAID – United States Agency for International Development, DEPA – Danish Environmental Protection Agency
