Geothermal Energy in India
• About 300 thermal springs are known
• Thirty one areas examened in detail
• Shallow drilling have been done in sixteen areas
• Medium (100°C-200°C) and low enthalphy (<100°C) geothermal energy resourcs/systems
• Medium enthalphy geothermal systems are associated with young intrusive granites (as in Himalya), major tectonics features and rifts and graben

Project application
The application is based on the INDNOR project and was
approved in the spring 2012
It will go over 3 year, from 2012 to 2015
The project is fully supported and granted by The
Research Council of Norway
It was applied for three parts;
- Ground Source Heat Pump
- Underground Thermal
Energy Storage
- Local district heating systems
utilizing thermal spring water
of 40-95°

Objects of the project - Energy from the lava in
Himalayas (Agneyodgara Urja)
Primary objects:
The vision of the project is to develop and demonstrate
innovative and sustainable technologies for utilization
of geothermal sources to supply North Western Indian
Himalayas with renewable energy
Secondary objects:
Pilot project studies, demonstrating local district heating system utilizing thermal spring water of 40-95° and Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) technology and applications
Geothermal energy
Space heating with direct use of heat
• There will be a demonstration plant in Chumathang,
Jammu & Kashmir.
• Numerous heat
sources in Chumathang.
Nearby, there is a direct
source outside a building
used for washing.
Space heating with direct use of heat
Closed loop – double
pipe system
G = gas separator
HX = heat exchanger
B = backup boiler
R = radiation heating
Space heating with direct use of heat
Other work that will be done at Chumatang
• A local geological map will be established by NITH in
Hamipur where the most important structures shall
be included
• WADIA will take some more watersamples
• WADIA will make some MT (magneto-telluric) survey
to detect up-flow of thermal fluid into the reservoir
Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP)
• SASE (Snow and Avalanche Study Establishment), Manali,
Himachal Pradesh. Established 969
• Are under DRDO (Defense Research & Development
Organization, that are under Ministry of Defence, Gov. of India.
• Have some existing borehole
that can possibly be used.
Site visit after summer.
Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP)
Closed loop heat
pump system
Open loop heat
pump system
Based on relatively constant ground
temp in the range of 4°C to 30°C
Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP)
Progress
• Kick-off meeting
• Pre-feasibility report for interesting areas
• Pilot project with use of direct heat is in progress, and
will be installed spring 2014
• Pilot project with ground heat pump is just started
Thanks for your attention!
