Eavor’s proprietary geothermal power technology consists of two vertical wells connected by one or more passes designed to circulate a working fluid in a closed loop system, with no interaction with the underground formation water, to supply heat at the surface.
Turboden Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) Technology converts the heat available at the surface into electricity by means of a closed thermodynamic process involving a suitable working fluid which is heated up in a heat exchanger and expanded in a turbine to generate electricity.
