🌍 The nGEL-smart use of Geothermal Energy Project Featured on ThinkGeoEnergy! 🔥 We’re excited to share that the nGEL Project has been featured on ThinkGeoEnergy, highlighting its groundbreaking work in transforming geothermal energy. By enhancing Organic Rankine Cycle (#ORC) plants with flexible #trigeneration, nGEL is pioneering a new era where #geothermal power can efficiently provide electricity, heating, and cooling – all while supporting #Europe’s transition to sustainable energy. The nGEL Project is funded by the Horizon Europe Framework Programme (HORIZON) Research and Innovation Actions under grant agreement No 101148170. Coordinated by Fraunhofer IEG and supported by global leaders like VITO, Zorlu Energy Group, Geolorn Ltd., RePG Enerji Sistemleri San. ve Tic. A.Ş., Naldeo Technologies & Industries, and Technovative Solutions LTD (TVS); the project is reshaping the future of geothermal energy. 💡 Discover how nGEL is shaping the future of renewable energy: https://t.ly/kg0pB #GeothermalEnergy #RenewableEnergy #Sustainability #Innovation #nGELProject #ThinkGeoEnergy #HorizonEU

Next generation flexible trigeneration geothermal ORC plant (nGEL)
About us
Next generation flexible trigeneration geothermal ORC plant (nGEL) is aiming to transform a geothermal ORC plant to a flexible tri-generation plant capable of both efficiently as well as cost effectively responding to the dynamic demand of power, heating, and cooling, attributing geothermal energy as a dispatchable source to balance the power and thermal grid against the progressive integration of intermittent RES (i.e. solar, wind). This will be achieved through the integration of absorption chiller, thermal energy storage, cold thermal energy storage, heat exchangers, smart control and energy management system (EMS) with AI functionalities. If the nGEL technology can be implemented in all of the existing ORC plants in the EU, around 215 TWht heat can be delivered to the thermal grid, which is approximately 4% of the EU current annual heat demand, which corresponds to annual economic saving (on NG import) of € 9.6 billion/year. This project has received funding from the Horizon Europe Framework Programme (HORIZON) Research and Innovation Actions under grant agreement No 101148170.

The EU-funded "Next Generation Flexible Trigeneration Geothermal ORC Plant" project aims to make ORC plants more responsive to changing demands. On July 4th, the “Next Generation Flexible Trigeneration Geothermal ORC Plant” (nGEL) Project consortium marked a significant milestone with a project kick-off meeting held in Bochum, Germany. The main objective of the nGEL project is to be able to generate electricity from geothermal resources at 110 °C and below, which are considered to be very low temperatures, and to make electricity, heating and cooling systems very efficient at moderately low temperatures of 110 to 170 °C. EU research seeks to redefine geothermal power, heating, and cooling (thinkgeoenergy.com) nGEL-smart use of Geothermal Energy
