Abstract

The invention relates to an apparatus for heating the ground (1) with at least one inductive heater. In this case, at least one conductor loop (2), which runs at least partially in the ground (1) and has sectionally compensated inductance, is fed electrical energy via a convertor unit (3; 3'). The electrical energy is generated by at least one energy convertor (4), which converts a regenerative energy into electrical energy. The convertor unit (3; 3') converts the electrical energy generated by the energy converter (4) directly into a medium-frequency or high-frequency electrical energy.
