This work aims to assess geothermal power potential in identified high enthalpy geothermal areas in the Chilean Andes, based on reservoir temperature and volume. In addition, we present a set of highly favorable geothermal ...

The Andes Cordillera resulted from the interaction of the Nazca Plate and the South American Plate. The subduction process occurring between both plates has controlled all geological evolution of such territory since ...

En el presente trabajo se revisó conceptualmente tres tecnologías de generación eléctrica con recurso geotérmico. El principal objetivo fue recopilar información sobre las alternativas para la solución del déficit de ...

Mexico has great potential for producing electric power from conventional geothermal resources. Currently, geothermal energy in Mexico represents 1.3% of the total installed capacity in the country. It is possible, mainly, ...

The Andes is the largest undeveloped geothermal region in the world. The Chilean case is the most puzzling because the country is largely dependent on imported fuels causing, among other issues, high energy prices and ...

Knowledge of the soil thermal characteristics is indispensable for dimensioning geothermal exchangers for air conditioning or yet to decrease their electric consumption. The present thesis evaluates the geothermal potential ...
