Abstract
A geothermal cooling system, the system comprising: a forced geothermal circuit in communication with a well bore; a heat exchanger; a cold reservoir fluid intake; and a reservoir return channel. A method for geothermal cooling, the method comprising: passing a hot working fluid into a forced geothermal circuit comprising a heat exchanger; passing a cold reservoir fluid from a reservoir through an intake; passing the cold reservoir fluid into the heat exchanger; reducing the temperature of the hot working fluid to form a cold working fluid; increasing the temperature of the cold reservoir fluid to form warm reservoir fluid; passing the cold working fluid into a cold surface closed loop; and passing the warm reservoir fluid into a reservoir return channel.
