Geothermal resources in RomaniaIlfov County Council The research for geothermal resources for energy purposes began in theearly 60’s based on a detailed geological programme for hydrocarbonresources. The geothermal potential - low-temperature geothermal systems porous permeable formations such as the Pannonian sandstone, andsiltstones specific (Western Plain, Olt Valley) or in fractured carbonateformations (Oradea, Bors and North Bucharest (Otopeni) areas). First well for geothermal utilisation in Romania (Felix SPA Bihor) wasdrilled in 1885 to a depth of 51 m, yielding hot water of 49 C, maximumflow rate 195 l/s. Since then over 250 wells have been drilled with a depth range of 8003,500 m, through which were discovered low-enthalpy geothermalresources with a temperature between 40 and 120 C. The total installed capacity of the existing wells in Romania is about 480MWth (for a reference temperature of 25 C).

Facts about Geothermal Energy Facts about Geothermal Energy Introduction Like the sun, Earth's inner core provides energy in the form of heat to the surface above. This form of heat energy is called geothermal energy. Geothermal energy can be used for heat or power, depending on the location, with minimal impact to the environment.

the roles geography and science play in geothermal energy. Lesson 2, Roman Bath Houses, allows students to study geothermal energy as it was used by Romans for their bath houses. Students will prepare a group project that enables them to design a creative advertising campaign to promote the uses of geothermal energy during Roman times. Lesson 3,
5. Geothermal Energy Advantages and Disadvantages The geothermal energy has many advantages it is a renewable source of energy, it is non-polluting and environment friendly, there is no wastage, can be used directly, maintenance cost of geothermal power plants is low and geothermal power plants do not occupy too much space and thus help in
