Abstract Mannvit has for the last three years worked on evaluating geothermal energy in Hungary. Integrated approached using different datasets has been used with good success. Before the study stated huge amount of data existed in the country mainly acquired in an attempt to find oil and gas or for scientific purposed. An extensive AMT/MT and gravity survey was performed especially with the aim of finding geothermal energy in the Triassic basement. The first geothermal exploration well, was successfully completed, close to the small town Szentlőrinc in south Hungary, in September 2009 giving 20 l/s in airlifting of over 80°C hot water with 5 – 6 l/s of artesian flow.
