Abstract (en)

The system has a reservoir -steam generator-conduit (42) between a reservoir and a steam generator. A drive water container-reservoir-conduit (52) is provided between a drive water container and the reservoir. The reservoir- steam generator -conduit is closed, for drive water exhaust from the reservoir. The drive water container- reservoir- conduit is opened such that drive water is fed back from the reservoir to the container : An independent claim is also included for a closed method for condensate energy recovery.
