Clean geothermal green earth compose the high-quality development of the world geothermal industry

The declaration pointed out that it will adhere to the four principles of sustainable development, open cooperation, fairness and rationality, sharing and win-win, promote the high-quality development of the global geothermal industry, and called on the geothermal industry decision-makers to strengthen public publicity and policy support for geothermal, promote the innovation and development of global geothermal technology, promote the transfer of geothermal technology and knowledge, and link the successful global energy transformation. We will promote the joint and integrated development of geothermal energy with other clean energy sources.

This is one of the important outcomes of the 2023 World Geothermal Congress. 3 important events, 8 peripheral events, 88 parallel forums, more than 400 technical reports, more than 200 poster displays... For three days, the activities of the World Geothermal Congress were in full swing, not only bringing brainstorming, but also focusing on the innovation achievements made by the geothermal industry in various fields around the world.

"Ethiopia is one of the countries in Africa with great geothermal potential, with more than 22 areas currently identified as having geothermal resources suitable for power generation, with a total geothermal power generation potential of more than 10,000 MWH." At the Global Geothermal Cooperation Forum held on the afternoon of September 15, the Minister of State of the Ethiopian Ministry of Mines, Puke, made a report on the spot.

The forum is one of the important activities of the World Geothermal Congress 2023. 12 guests from all over the world discussed the development of the global geothermal industry, discussed the frontier technology and future development of geothermal, and provided valuable ideas and inspiration for promoting the research, development and application of geothermal science and technology in the world. The Forum also invited guests from El Salvador, Kenya, France, Iceland, Turkey and Germany to conduct a five-continent geothermal dialogue.

"The IGA standard" China's Geothermal heating Recommended Practices "plays a normative and leading role in the evaluation, design, construction and standardized operation of the geothermal industry." On the afternoon of September 17, at the IGA (International Geothermal Association) standards conference, Liu Deshun, director of the Department of Energy Conservation and Science and Technology Equipment of the National Energy Administration, said.

It is understood that this is the first industry standard released in the global geothermal field, led by the geothermal professional standards Technical Committee of the energy industry, Sinopec, petrochina, Beijing Institute of Geology and Mineral Exploration and other units jointly researched and developed, including geothermal resource evaluation, heat load calculation, mining program design, drilling and completion engineering, heating engineering, monitoring and control, and other six parts. It provides a perfect technical standard reference for the global geothermal heating industry, and is of great significance for leading the high-quality development of the geothermal industry and promoting the green and low-carbon transformation of national energy.

At the same time, sponsor activities such as China-Iceland Geothermal Technology Matchmaking Meeting, Geothermal Youth Forum, Luyuan Company Forum and low-grade heat source power generation Technology Exchange Meeting were held simultaneously. Technical exchange, cooperation signing, build consensus, seek win-win...... In the past three days, the National Convention Center has continuously staged a wonderful story of deepening industrial cooperation and promoting the clean and efficient development and utilization of geothermal resources.

Unlimited opportunities

Contribute Chinese wisdom to the high-quality development of the global geothermal industry

"At the end of 2022, shallow geothermal heating (cooling) capacity is 810 million square meters, and hydrothermal geothermal heating capacity is 570 million square meters. Geothermal direct utilization of 40,936 MW, accounting for 38 percent of global geothermal direct utilization, has been among the highest in the world since 2004." On September 15, the reporter punched the geothermal energy development technology and equipment special exhibition, and saw the introduction of China's geothermal resources and development and utilization at the world geothermal industry development booth.

Among them, the Xiongan New Area geothermal heating project is shown separately as a typical project of medium and deep hydrothermal geothermal heating.

The exhibition will be held in conjunction with the World Geothermal Congress 2023 over three days. Located on the first floor of the National Convention Center, the exhibition covers an area of 22,000 square meters and is divided into four theme exhibition areas: resource exploration, geothermal development, integrated application, cooperation and exchange, and three important booths including geothermal science popularization, world geothermal industry development, and Sinopec stand are planned simultaneously. More than 220 enterprises at home and abroad participated in the exhibition, the number of exhibitors, exhibition area and display categories are the most in the previous world geothermal Congress.
