The drilling contract for the second geothermal doublet to expand the heating capacity of AFK Geothermie in Germany has been signed with Daldrup & Söhne. AFK Geothermie has signed the drilling contracts for its second deep geothermal doublet with drilling company Daldrup & Söhne AG following a Europe-wide tender. AFK Geothermie is an inter-municipality geothermal heating company founded in 2008 by the communities of Aschheim, Feldkirchen, and Kirchheim in Eastern Munich. Its current heating network has already reached its full capacity, prompting plans to drill a second doublet and construct a second geothermal heating plant. With a second deep geothermal heating plant, AFK Geothermie will be able to supply 90 to 100% of the region’s heat demand with geothermal energy.
