Zusammenfassung:PURPOSE:To enable effective recovery of steam or hot-water energy conventionally kept out of use, by connecting a separator for making separation between steam and hot water to a turbine via a pressure elevator for elevating the steam pressure. CONSTITUTION:In a subterranean heat electric-power generator, the steam and hot water produced from each of several, or several tens of, pit wells 1a, 1b are separated from each other by means of a corresponding one of separators 2a, 2b. Then, the steam is supplied, as an energy source, into a high-pressure stage of a steam turbine 4 for generation of an electric power. A pressure elevator 6 is disposed in a steam-side line connected to the high-pressure stage of the turbine 4 and, by this pressure elevator 6, the steam from the separator 2a has its pressure elevated up to a prescribed level required for driving the turbine. The hot water in the separator 2a is led to a recovery well 3a. On the other hand, the steam in the separator 2b which has a prescribed level of pressure is directly connected to the high-pressure stage of the turbine 4 via a line 5b while the hot water therein is led to a recovery well 3b.
