Science & Technology: Companies Claim Electricity from 70-120°C Geothermal Energy

Groundbreaking technology enables 100% clean electricity from geothermal heat in the Netherlands (news.cision.com)


Swedish company Climeon and Dutch company IF Technology have teamed up to do something that has never been done before in the Netherlands: generate electricity from geothermal energy. The partnership combines Climeon’s revolutionary heat power solution Climeon Ocean™ with IF Technology’s 25 years of experience in designing geothermal systems. 

Climeon’s Ocean™ is a vacuum enabled Heat Power solution that generates electricity from hot water far more efficiently than any other solutions in the market. As a consequence, Climeon Ocean™ can operate in ultra-low temperature ranges (70-120°C), making geothermal electricity production in the Netherlands economically feasible.

Climeon and IF Technology have signed an agreement showcasing our belief in the combination of the Ocean™ technology and the Dutch geothermal energy market.
