The geothermal energy company Eavor and Isar-Loisach-Naturwärme GmbH signed a heat supply contract in the Geretsried town hall.
Geretsried – The heat supply contract between Isar-Loisach-Naturwärme GmbH (ILN), a subsidiary of Stadtwerke Geretsried, and Eavor Erdwärme Geretsried GmbH was recently signed in the town hall.
The city of Geretsried reports this in a press release.
The contract had previously been approved by the administrative board of Stadtwerke Geretsried and the Geretsried City Council.
“New chapter in the energy transition”: Eavor and Stadtwerke Geretsried sign geothermal energy contract
In the announcement, Mayor Michael Müller (CSU) emphasizes the importance of this contract for the people of Geretsried: “The use of geothermal energy is an essential building block for the success of the energy transition for our region and Bavaria.
Regionally, it can reliably supply us with climate-friendly heat.” However, according to Müller, not every household in Geretsried will initially be able to be connected to the district heating network.
“The backbone is formed by large properties such as schools, companies and large residential areas.”

The contract provides for the delivery of up to 81,200 megawatt hours of heat per year to Isar-Loisach-Naturwärme GmbH.
Jan Dühring, chairman of the municipal utilities and managing director of Isar Loisach Naturwärme GmbH, is quoted in the statement: “Expanding the necessary infrastructure for the use of geothermal energy is a challenge for our new company, our municipal utilities and the city as a whole, which we are committed to will be happy and with a lot of energy.”
The ILN district heating network will be built in six expansion stages from 2025 or 2026, depending on drilling progress, and will extend from the industrial area in Gelting to Geretsried-Stein.

Here we show how Eavor Loop technology can become a real game changer for the heating sector.
Geretsried will thus become a role model for municipalities on the path to climate neutrality.”
