AARHUS: Geothermal energy works, and there is good potential for this form of energy in Greater Copenhagen, North Zealand and around the larger cities on Zealand and in East and Central Denmark. This is the message from Innargi CEO Samir Abboud, who in an interview with Dansk Fjernvarme puts into words the experiences from Aarhus, where the company, in collaboration with Kredsløb, is working with geothermal district heating.
- 6 million liters of geothermal water circulates in Skejby every single day now. All district heating professionals can come and see it. I think that will make a difference, says Samir Abboud about the geothermal plant that opened at the end of October 2025. In Aarhus, geothermal energy is expected to reduce annual CO2 emissions by approximately 165,000 tons.
The director calls geothermal energy a good neighbor that does not make noise, smell or fill up. But the drilling period cannot avoid disturbing those who live closest to it. Currently, Innargi, outside Aarhus, is developing a project together with Vestforbrænding north of Copenhagen.
