Abstract:Accompanying with rapid development of social economy in China, the demand of energy increased greatly. The contraction between supply and demandof energy has become more and more prominent. The pressure caused by the consumption of coal, petroleum, natural gas and other conventional energy to the environment is becoming more and more great. As a renewable environment-friendly energy, shallow geothermal resource has been paid more attention gradually by governments at all levels. Through analysis on the storage conditions of shallow geothermal resources in Dezhou city, by using testing data, shallow geothermal capacity has been calculated. Based on the suitability partition, shallow geothermal energy resource potential evaluation has been carried out. As showed by the results, shallow geothermal capacity in the depth of 120m in Dezhou city is 8.525×1013kJ/℃, which is equivalent to 2.91 millions of tons of standard coals. The whole Dezhou city belongs to unsuitable area for groundwater heat exchanger system, but it is suitable for pipe heat exchanger system. Within the suitable area for pipe heat exchanger system, in consideration of land utilization factor in the depth of 120m, it is calculated that the heat exchanger power for summer is 3391800kw, heat exchanger power for winter is 3432200kw, the refrigerated area for summer is 4.845×107m2,and refrigerated area for winter is 6.240×107m2.
