The geothermal energy potential in Denmark

Reservoir properties, temperature distribution and models for utilisation

Funded by: DCSR

The project will analyse all available relevant geological and geophysical data. New data and models will be generated to identify, map and characterise suitable potential geothermal reservoirs, and also evaluate the total energy potential using models for understanding variation in reservoir unit quality and temperature conditions.
