Figure 1 Two 250 kW United Technologies ORC units located at Chena Hot Springs Alaska Although several companies have provided Rankine cycle plants for geothermal applications; one company, Ormat Energy Systems of Sparks, NV has dominated the market, particularly in the smaller (<1MW) modular power plants. Recently United Technologies Corporation (UTC), a large manufacturer of refrigeration and air conditioning equipment, has entered the ORC market – cleverly taking advantage of the similarities between their refrigeration equipment and ORC units. UTC installed its first geothermal unit (Figure 1) in Alaska at Chena Hot Springs in 2006. The plant operates at the previously unheard of temperature of 165° Fahrenheit (F). Part of the reason this extremely low temperature operation is possible is that river cooling water is available in the summer at 40° F and in the winter air cooling of the plant allows for even lower cooling temperatures. Please see additional information on UTC Power in the Appendix. ORC equipment available from both major vendors is far more highly developed and field proven than was the case with the SPS power generation equipment installed in Lakeview in the 1980’s. Beyond this, careful management, adequate budget and professional oversight will assure that shortcomings associated with the early geothermal power generation effort are not repeated. The ORC plant type offers both benefits and challenges with respect to geothermal power development. Most importantly it facilitates the generation of power from lower temperature geothermal resources by employing a cycle that permits the boiling of a fluid at lower temperature than steam can be generated. By using working fluids selected specifically for their low temperature performance characteristics, machines can be customized, to some degree, to the application. In the case of the geothermal temperature available here in the Lakeview area, it is possible that the working fluid of choice may be Lakeview Geothermal Power Generation Facility Feasibility Study 3PDF Image | LAKEVIEW GEOTHERMAL POWER GENERATION FACILITY FEASIBILITY
