Możliwooeci wykorzystania energii geotermalnej między Bochnią a Brzeskiem

Hydrogeothermal conditions of the Bochnia - Brzesko area within of Devonian, Cretaceous, Jurassic and Miocene aquifers are evaluated. Particularly favourable geothermal conditions in this area result from good hydrogeological parameters of the Late Cretaceous aquifer [Cenomanian sandstones, up to 80 m thick in this area]. Heat power estimate for one geothermal doublet [with a heat pump system] exploiting the Cenomanian aquifer yields 1.5 MWt. Currently, other aquifers in this area [Miocene, Jurassic, Devonian] are regarded as being of secondary importance for geothermal purposes.
