Novel carbon dioxide-based geothermal energy generation systems, i.e., carbon plume geothermal (CPG) systems, and methods are provided. With the novel systems and methods described herein, geothermal energy can now be provided at lower temperatures and at locations other than hot, dry rock formations, without negatively impacting the surrounding area through use of large-scale hydrofracturing. Use of a carbon dioxide-based geothermal system further provides a means for sequestering and storing excess carbon dioxide, rather than having it released to the atmosphere.

L'invention porte sur de nouveaux systèmes de génération d'énergie géothermique à base de dioxyde de carbone, à savoir des systèmes géothermiques à panache de carbone (CPG) et sur des procédés s'y rapportant. Grâce aux nouveaux systèmes et procédés tels que décrits dans la description, de l'énergie géothermique peut alors être produite à des températures inférieures et à des emplacements autres que des formations de roches sèches, très chaudes, sans présenter une influence défavorable sur la zone environnante par l'utilisation d'une hydrofracturation à grande échelle. L'utilisation d'un système géothermique à base de dioxyde de carbone fournit en outre un moyen pour séquestrer et stocker le dioxyde de carbone en excès, plutôt que de le faire libérer dans l'atmosphère.
