The IRETHERM project is developing a strategic understanding of Ireland’s deep geothermal energy potential through integrated modelling of new and existing geophysical and geological data. One aspect of IRETHERM’s research focuses on Ireland’s radiothermal granites, where increased concentrations of radioelements provide elevated heat-production (HP), surface heat-flow (SHF) and subsurface temperatures. An understanding of the contribution of granites to the thermal field of Ireland is important to assessing the geothermal energy potential of this low-enthalpy setting. This study focuses on the Galway granite in western Ireland, and the Leinster and the buried Kentstown granites in eastern Ireland.
