    Trigeneration with geothermal energy has the potential to simultaneously produce power, heating, and cooling using a geothermal heat source between 100-250°C. The document discusses several subsystems - a power plant, cooling station, and heating station - that can be coupled together or compete for the geothermal heat. Examples of geothermal trigeneration projects providing power and heating are discussed from Husavik, Altheim, and Neustadt-Glewe. The optimal design must balance the subsystems' interaction while distributing the limited geothermal heat. Further R&D is needed in subsystem components, architecture, and controls to better realize trigeneration's benefits.
