Mr Kallis will provide a snapshot of Australia’s geothermal energy industry when he presents a case study on the Paralana Geothermal Energy Project at the EcoGen 2011 Conference.

The project, a joint venture between Petratherm, Beach Energy and TRUenergy Geothermal, is located close to the northern Flinders Ranges in South Australia.

Mr Kallis’ presentation will delve into the development processes for engineered geothermal system projects such as Paralana, and will explain how Petratherm is seeking to exploit the energy from deeply buried granites by creating and enhancing existing micro-fracture networks to develop a geothermal reservoir.
