Popis: The EU H2020 GECO project is primarily aimed to set-up technologies to lower emissions from geothermal power generation by capturing them for either reuse or storage, to turn captured emissions in to commercial products and demonstrate the technical and economic feasibility of the injection method. To achieve this goal a site specific characterization and modelling of geology and geochemistry of the geothermal reservoir are in progress for optimization of the injection experiments at four distinct geothermal systems throughout Europe are in progress. The Italian GECO demonstration site is Castelnuovo, which is located in the northeaster side of the Larderello geothermal area and where Graziella Green Power and Storengy are planning to exploit a deep seated high temperature resource for power production with the scope of no non condensable gases (NCGs), release in atmosphere. The geothermal fluid will be extracted from 2 production wells and then it will be reinjected in the reservoir by mean of 1 reinjection well. A Zero emissions ORC power plant will produce 5MWe. For the geological assessment of Castelnuovo site an integrated methodology was designed and is applied to obtain the most reliable and accurate assessment of the site. The geological, reservoir and chemical reactive modelling are performed using field or labs data and observations (i.e., geology, geophysics, geochemistry surveys). Moreover, we adopted a double scale approach where regional, and larger, model was built to provide constrains to local, smaller and detailed, models. At regional scale a geological model including the main structures of the area is modelled to create the geometries needed to local models. At locale scale, firstly the thermal steady state of the rock volume and secondly the reinjection simulations on reservoir and fluids-rocks interaction during the reinjection are numerically computed.
