Additional information

Proof of concept, via modelling, that a geothermal energy source combined with a chiller, Brayton and Rankine cycles could provide electrical energy, district heating and hot water. This resulted in significant estimated carbon savings. The results demonstrate that geothermal energy has significant potential to meet energy demand in semi-arid regions such as Libya.
