Abstract:Xiongan New Area is rich in geothermal resources, which may play a key role in the construction of ecological civilization. The shallow geothermal energy (<200 m), and deep geothermal energy stored in sandstone and karstic reservoirs are rich and suitable for exploition and utilization. The deep carbonate geothermal resources is particularly large and easy to be exploited. Geothermal resource stored in super deep layer (>3000 m) is also of good potential. The Xiongxian City located in the Xiongan New Area, has pioneered in the large-scale district heating using karstic geothermal resources, which is the largest single project in the world that has a total geothermal heating capacity of 4.5×10⁶ m². The author believes that the exploration of geothermal resources in the future should be enhanced, especially in super-deep geothermal resource exploration. On the use of geothermal energy, we should make full use of the shallow geothermal energy, adjust measures to local conditions, and make rational allocation of shallow and deep geothermal resources. In addition, we should also pay attention to environmental protection, and coordinate the relationship between geothermal resources and other energy. At the same time, we should widely apply the technique taking advantage of storage function of geothermal reservoirs, and gradually construct the new development pattern of clean energy that geothermal energy is used as main body and others are complementary energy.
