Geothermal energy is an important renewable energy source, especially in areas with intense volcanic-tectonic activity and high geothermal gradient such as Greece. Specifically, in central Greece, along the North Euboean Gulf coast, several significant geothermal sites exist with representative example the thermal spring of Aedipsos. Considering that the assessment of a potential utilization of geothermal fields based on the reliable estimation of deep reservoir origin and temperature, a geochemical survey on the thermal fluids released by the above geothermal systems was undertaken.Thermal and cold water samples were collected from Aedipsos. Temperature, pH and conductivity were measured directly in the field. Isotope analyses of water samples 5180 and 52H were performed in Stable Isotope Unit, Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Institute, NCSR "Demokritos" Greece.
