The potential of geothermal energy sources and their evaluation in the energy sense is the basis of a sustainable management strategy in a way that does not endanger the resources, while maximizing their potential. Geothermal energy represents one of the most promising potential for renewable energy in the region. The possibility of using warm, geothermal water depends on the temperature and the abundance of the source. The advantage of a particular area is reflected in the fact that sources for use are already available. Geothermal water is characterized by a very favorable chemical composition in terms of use for heating and the absence of aggressive properties. Resource characteristics on the one hand (temperature, pressure) and thermal requirements of facilities on the other, with certain restrictions on existing installations, and the distance of wells from users, determined the type and heating network of the geothermal remote system, which provides for the use of locally available and renewable energy sources. The effects of this system are multiple, ranging from savings, through increased energy efficiency and sustainable use of geothermal resources, to environmentally positive environmental effects due to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.
