The future of energy supply lies in the region around Munich - in a mix of water, wind power, biogas and photovoltaic systems coupled with the expansion of geothermal energy.
Fürstenfeldbruck – The heat from deep geothermal energy can, among other things, make a major contribution to the expansion of district heating and thus contribute to climate protection at the municipal level.
Andreas Lohde, CSU parliamentary group leader, is convinced of that.
Against this background, Lohde, who is also a member of the supervisory board of Stadtwerke Fürstenfeldbruck, initiated an on-site visit to Stadtwerke München's geothermal power plant in Freiham.
Together with parliamentary group colleagues and AR member Hans Schilling, the constituency member Alex Dorow, and the CSU member of the state parliament Josef Schmid, Lohde informed himself about the technology of the geothermal power plant.
At the same time, the group was presented with the experiences made in Munich with generating energy from hot water.

There are various scenarios for Fürstenfeldbruck for using the energy potential that is available underground.
"The ideal would be the combined use of deep heat for the combined production of electricity and heat," says City Councilor Schilling.
However, this requires a corresponding temperature level.
In the South German Molasse Basin, on which the Brucker region is located, the dual use of deep geothermal energy is already on the outskirts of Munich.
A geothermal power plant for the production of electricity and heat must therefore be operated in cooperation with communities that are above high-temperature areas.
"In the area around Fürstenfeldbruck, we could use the low-temperature heat flows among our communities in a heating network with other municipalities quite economically if we connect to a correspondingly efficient heating network," summarized Andreas Lohde.
