In Traunreut, 2000 households are now supplied with geothermal energy

Gammel Engineering and Stadtwerke Traureut have been working together since 2002. A biomass cogeneration plant supplies a large number of public, commercial and private properties with heat.

In 2010, the integration of the geothermal power plant built by a private investor into the overall network was investigated - and a favorable heat supply contract was successfully negotiated for Stadtwerke Traureut.

Last Friday, the district heating feed-in from geothermal energy was put into operation in Traunreut. This means that over 2000 households in Traunreut can now be supplied with geothermal energy.

Every second, 40 liters of thermal water are extracted from a depth of 5000 meters - the target is 165 liters per second. After the energy transformation, this thermal water is then fed back into the water reservoir; two heat exchangers ensure trouble-free heat transformation into the district heating network.
