Pico Vermelho Pilot Plant
1973-1980: Surface exploration and exploratory drilling of the
Ribeira Grande geothermal field
1980-2005: Exploitation of the pilot plant
Manufacturer: Mitsubishi
Nominal capacity: 3 MW
Steam consumption: 56 t/h @ 5,1 bar.a
Operating results: 84 GWh in 136 k hours
Pico Vermelho power plant was operated for 25 years
and served as a valuable training school for the
technical staff in the operation and maintenance of the
wellfield and generation equipment.

1989- A Demonstration Project financed by the EC
European Directorate for Energy (DXVII), including
two geothermal wells and a small district heating
network aborted due to political changes.
The first tranche versed by the EC was already in a
Chaves bank.

In conclusion:
•High temperature geothermal resources in Portugal are limited to the volcanic
islands of the Azores, where electric power has been produced since 1980.
•Low-temperature geothermal resources are exploited for direct uses in
balneotherapy, small space heating systems and geothermal heat pumps.
•Main district heating projects are operating at Chaves in northern Portugal and
S. Pedro do Sul, in central Portugal.
•There is a single greenhouse project in S. Pedro do Sul covering 2 ha, for
raising tropical fruit (mainly pineapple).
•About 30 spas are operating in the country, but most are only open in the
summer.
•In 2010, private investors obtained concession rights for exploration of
geothermal resources for a total area of 2,655 km2, aiming for future development
of small scale EGS generation projects
•Several dozen small geothermal heat pump installations are operating
throughout the country, but this application is not yet fully recognized as a
geothermal resource by the Portuguese administration.
The data on the various geothermal utilizations are:
1.5 MWt and 12.9 TJ/yr for district heating;
1.0 MWt and 13.8 TJ/yr for greenhouse heating;and,
25.3 MWt and 358.6 TJ/yr for bathing and swimming.
No estimates are available for geothermal heat pumps, thus we
estimate 24 installations at 12 kW, a COP of 3.5 and 1,500 full load
operating hours per year, gives 0.3 MWt and 1.1 TJ/yr. This gives a
total for the country of 28.1 MWt and 386.4 TJ/yr (Cabeças et al.,
2010).
Actualmente a potência instalada em Portugal com
GSHP já é superior à correspondente aos usos
directos nos polos termais
