Geothermal energy is a clean, renewable and inexhaustible source for producing power. However, the thermal efficiency of geothermal power plants is low, because geothermal fluids do not reach high temperatures. This makes it important to find the best process layout and the best working fluid for the power plant process. For selecting the optimum plant for a given geothermal site accurate performance models of the possible options play an important role.
IPSEpro is the ideal tool for creating performance models of any plant type used for geothermal power generation.
