Zusammenfassung:	A system (10) is disclosed for generating energy from a geothermal heat source (14). The system includes a fluid injection system (12) configured for injecting fluid into a subterranean formation and a fluid extraction system configured for extracting fluid from the subterranean formation after being heated by the formation. The system further includes a heat transformer (18) configured to receive a first fluid (44) heated by the geothermal heat source (14) at a first temperature and adapted to heat a second fluid (50) to a second temperature via a series of chemical reactions. Furthermore, the system includes an energy generation unit (20) configured to receive heated the second fluid at the second temperature from the heat transformer to increase the temperature of a third fluid (53) which is used to generate energy. La présente invention concerne un système (10) destiné à la génération d'énergie à partir d'une source de chaleur géothermique (14). Le système comprend un système d'injection de fluide (12) conçu pour injecter du fluide dans une formation souterraine ainsi qu'un système d'extraction de fluide conçu pour extraire le fluide de la formation souterraine, une fois que celui a été chauffé par ladite formation. Le système comprend en outre un transformateur de chaleur (18) conçu pour recevoir un premier fluide (44) chauffé à une première température par la source de chaleur géothermique (14), puis chauffer à une seconde température un second fluide (50) à l'aide d'une série de réactions chimiques. De plus, le système comprend une unité de production d'énergie (20) conçue pour recevoir du transformateur de chaleur le second fluide chauffé à la seconde température, afin d'augmenter la température d'un troisième fluide (53) utilisé pour produire de l'énergie.
