Thermoflow Engineering GmbH
Issue of business
Thermoflow Engineering develops and sells
passive-autarkic heating systems (PAB) based on
geothermal power for areas and buildings.
In parallel Thermoflow Engineering developed an
autonomous drilling system (ATS) for drillings up
to a depths of 600 meters to gain geothermal
power at a reasonable price.
For the first time this system allows to open up
geothermal power for heating systems at any place
at low cost and makes it economical attractive.

Technology I
The passive-autarkic heating system is known
since the 80s as Heatpipe-Technology to heat
areas and buildings.
First a hole has to be drilled in ground. In this
hole a pressure-tight pipe (called Erdsonde)
will be installed. The pipe is filled with a
fluid (CO²) which contains under pressure.
As a result of physical characteristic of the
fluid, temperature, pressure and gravitation
originates a convector-circuit.
Heated gas goes up and gives up thermal energy
and condenses. Now the cold fluid drains down in
liquid form. Once on bottom the fluid gets heated
again, goes up and turns back in the circuit.

Technology II
Within this system it is possible to transport
thermal energy to the place of usage (heating)
without any pumps.
After installation of the system there is no need
to bring in more energy. The system adjusts
itself and is completely maintenance free.
The distribution will be carried out by mentioned
heat-pipes which can be found in floor or
walls depending on wishes of customer and usage.

Advantages over conventional technique and
customer usage
Customers gain the following advantages by using
PAB and no conventional systems

• by utilising the PAB -system there are NO
  costs for heating-energy. There is no need for
  regulation or running control. There are NO
  operating costs.

• The system operates absolute emission free
  this includes chances for subsidies. System is
  tax-free.

• long economic life-time 45 years guarantee
  for pressure-tightness of heat-pipe (Erdsonde)
  after repair (40 of original costs) again a
  minimum of 45 years.

• lowest operating costs of all known heating
  systems thermal energy is inexhaustible.

• Fully control of costs by independence from
  energy market.

Status of development
As a result of an extensive research, the use of
heat-pipes for heating purposes could be
patented, as well as the ATS. For these products
Thermoflow Engineering uses well tested standard
components from market leaders.
New developments are only needed in terms of
processes, for example in regards to filling of
heat-pipe with CO2, laying of heat-pipes in
walls or ground and cooling of ATS.
In terms of research and development Thermoflow
Engineering co-operates with renowned Business
Partners and institutions of relevant fields.
The usage of the system will be available within
thirty months after investment.

Situation on market

• fast growing prices for energy cost of energy
  in future can not be calculated anymore.

• the continuos strength at the emission market
  and laws on emission force to new investments.

• The passive-autarkic heating system can be
  installed in any solid constructed building. Also
  later additionally.

• long-term and stable returns are possible by
  contracting.

• The passive-autarkic heating can be licensed as
  ecological compensation. Thermoflow Engineering
  already applied for this concept.

Comparison of installation and operating costs
for heating systems 40 and 80 years
Facts for both systems deliver heat for 600 m²
terraced houses, new buildings, 4 living units,
low-energy standard conventional
heating Installation, change of heating system
every 20 years, after changing 20 less
consumption, costs of energy increase with 4 per
year costs of maintenance 3 of original costs
of heating system per year. (without operating
costs of pumps) passive-autarkic heating

Revenues and net profit
The expected revenue includes turnover of the
development partner.
In period 2008 - 2012 the planned revenues will
be 126 million Euro. The net profit will be 10,8
million Euro.
Positive results are already planned for 2010.
Net margin up to year 2012 will be approximately
12 percent after taxes in following period up to
year 2017 it will be approximately 18 percent.
A detailed calculation of Thermoflow Engineering
is given in the business plan.
