GEOTHERMAL UTILIZATIONG AND DEVELOPMENT IN HEBEI PROVINCE Li Hongying Bureau of Land & Resources in Baoding City, Hebei Province, China THREE PARTS: INTRODUCTION OF HEBEI GEOTHERMAL UTILIZATION AND DEVELOPMENT IN HEBEI CONCLUSION FIRST PART: INTRODUCTION OF HEBEI Hebei : located in North China, surround Beijing and Tianjin, the capital is Shijiazhuang E113°27′-119°50′, N36°05′-42°40′. Total area : 187693km2 Population : 68.98 Million 11 cities, 173 counties, 910 towns Hebei’s Position in China Hebei Beijing MAP OF HEBEI Shijiazhuang Mineral resources in Hebei: 150 mineral resources ,34 are of top 5 in China , 6290 mining enterprises Including metallurgic, coal, building material and oil-chemistry. COAL occupies 1/13 of the whole country Three oil fields,proved oil reserves are 2.7 billion tons, and natural gas reserves 180 billion m3. Hebei ‘s pressure? Severe environmental and social pressure:China’s entry into WTO, 2008 Olympics holding in Beijing Hebei is heavy-industry province, serious pollution 2007, Hebei is one of 7 un-qualified provinces in total 30 during national environmental examination What did Hebei do on renewable use? Solar energy：China Power Valley (Baoding City) Wind energy: China largest wind power plant base (Zhangjiakou City) Geothermal energy: three China Geothermal Towns(Xiong, Bazhou and Gu’an County) China Power Valley—Low-C Baoding : (National Development and Reform Commission approved) Names:Renewable industry base, New energy industry high-tec base, Solar multi-application model, Low-C city 6 new industrial types on Photovoltaic, wind power, solar power,and auto- electronic production and study Power Valley Hotel Solar Street Lamp Solar Traffic Light Solar Police Box Solar post magzine box Solar bath heater Solar centralized hot water heater Multicrystalline polysilicon battery PV product manufacturer Largest Wind Power Plant Base — Zhangjiakou City: high plateau,population small in quantity Low ecnomic level Wind resources rich To 2015, predicted wind power capacity will be 3 MW Zhangbei wind power plant Yehuling wind power plant Fan production Three China Geothermal Towns: Xiong, Bazhou and Gu’an County (approved by China Mineral Industry Assosiation) Approve according to strict procedure from resources condition, utilization scale, development level, future scheme, management regulation, etc. Started from 2004, total 10 in China. Field investigation Discussing and evaluating Naming ceremony in People’s Hall in Beijing Second part: GEOTHERMAL UTILIZATION AND DEVELOPMENT IN HEBEI Characteristics of geothermal in Hebei (1) Deep bury but large reserves in plain, natural spring but small scale in mountain area Low-moderate temp, 35-108℃, some can be used directly 37 geothermal fields, include 19 large (>50MW), 16 midium (10-50MW), and 2 small (<10MW), most distribute in Hebei Plain, total area 16240km2 Characteristics of geothermal in Hebei (2) Total reserves equal to coal 41.9 billion tons, minable reserves equal to coal 9.4 billion tons. Main use: space heating, bathing, sanatoria, greenhouses, swimming pools, accommodation and recreation, chicken hatching and fish farming, etc. Hot spring Geothermal area Distribution in Hebei China Geothermal town Main geothermal fields mount ai n ar ea pl ai n pl at eau Pump station for a resident district heating in Bazhou Pump station of Jinhai Villa New facilities Geothermal heating station of Century Town hot spring District in Xiong County A resident district （400，000m2) in Xiong County, 4 wells heating 0203 Geothermal heating station In Xiong County (Bureau of Transportation District) Outdoor discharge pool in Xiong County Xiong County Government building, heating by heat pump, lighting by solar New district is constructing, 440,000m2, heating by 6 wells(including 3 reinjection wells) Greenhouse for flower planting Greenhouse for flower planting Greenhouse in Gu’an County Fish farming in Gu’an Fish farming in Zhongjie Farm Animal feeding Indoor recreation in Mingtang Holiday Recreation Center in Bazhou Outdoor recreation and discharge feeding Chinese Sturgeon Japanese style accommodation Jinhai villa in Gu’an County Indoor swimming pool and Recreation in Jinhai Holiday Hotel Zunhua hot spring sanitorium Chicheng natural hot spring Foundation subsidence caused pump sank Geothermal utilization status: In mountain area: In Hebei Plain: 47 hot springs (31 are Started use from 1980’s, using), temp. 28- mainly in rural area 98℃, production 37 fields, 18.56 million Main for space heating, fish m3/a.Bathing tourists farming, agricultrial use, in 3.27 million/a . recent 10 years swimming pools, accommodation and Problems:spring recreation getting popular disappear, waterflow Heat pumps used widely in reduce new buildings both in geothermal and non- geothermal area Figure on geothermal production and heating area comparation: year production Heating area（million m2） (million m3) 2004 28.2 1 (not accurate) 2006.6 31.35 4.7(4.42 space heating) 2008.6 40(predict) 7.34(not include new 1 at the end of this year) Opportunities for geothermal development Area vast,nearly 1/10 of the total area residents concentrated, long winter heating time need. Geothermal resources can be mined easily (3000m well drilling is accepted ) Compulsory policy requires all fossil fuel boilers must be demolished and replaced by new energy heat pump application successful and widely Limitations to geothermal development Geological work not enough for understanding of geothermal resource over-mined and non-reinjection system caused serious effect for long-term conduction Rural areas are not satisfied on large-scale, concentrated and high-efficient geothermal utilization. laws and rules and policies are still short in some aspects Management schedule and future scheme New situation need new mechanism. Basic and public energy supply strategy is setting, some studying subjects are on doing. New policy on prospecting and mining right will come out this year New develpoment model between government and social investment is on exploring. Reinjection will compelling, monitoring is forced Encouraging policy will tilt to cascading and reinjection systems Third part: CONCLUSION Hebei face great pressure, has to seek new ways to solve problems on energy supply and emission reduction. Geothermal rich and increases rapidly Heat pump use widely in both geo and non- geothermal area, can be used partly for geothermal cascading utilization . Prospecting and mining right policy can promote integrative step on investment , 300 rights are waiting for approval by government. Reinjection and monitoring must be carried out strictly especially in over-mined area. THANK YOU FOR ATTENTION!.
