Abstract
Geothermal research activities in central Poland have focused on the elaboration of exploration methodology and its application to medium and low enthalpy geothermal systems occurring in Cretaceous, Jurassic and Triassic sedimentary formations. Research works included two geophysical methods – seismic and magnetotelluric surveys carried out close to Łowicz city to create a detailed geostructural model that included its anisotropic fracture system. This was performed to highlight formations with high fracture permeability and presumable flow paths for geothermal media as high productivity zones.
