Lankao Geothermal Based Space Heating System

Lankao County, Henan province, People’s Republic of China

Lankao Geothermal Based Space Heating System

Geothermal is a non-polluting, renewable and clean energy compared with traditional fossil energy such as coal, oil and natural gas. According to the Plan for Clean Heating in Winter in Northern China (2017-2021) (Development and Reform of Energy resources (2017) No. 2100) , the proportion of clean heating in northern China is low, especially in some areas, where bulk burning coal is used in winter and air pollutant emissions are high, so it is urgent to promote clean heating. At present, there is no municipal central heating system in the urban area of Lankao County, so a new central heating source is needed to ensure the heating demand. The purpose of the project activity is to introduce geothermal energy-based space heating system to realize heat supply to a series of residential buildings in Lankao County over winter season, which will displace heat supply from isolated coal-fired boilers as a business-as-usual scenario in the project area. The project owner is Lankao Green Energy Clean Energy Co., Ltd. It can supply geothermal heat to 3,736.1 thousand m2 of newly built residential buildings with a total heating load of 112.08 MW. The scenario prior to the implementation of the proposed project activity is that heat supplied to the building areas in winter would be provided by isolated coal-fired boilers.
