Summary
The China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation (Sinopec) has announced that their first geothermal power demonstration project has obtained the access permit to start supplying power to the power grid in Xianyang City in Shaanxi Province, China. The facility is an integrated power, heat, and helium extraction plant.
During the heating season, geothermal is utilized for low-load power generation, which cascades down to heating by heat exchange. When heating is not needed, the project generates electricity at full load. The combined heat and power plant is described to have a heating capacity of 170,000 square meters and an annual power generation capacity of about 700,000 kWh.
