Partner Search Request: Development of Geothermal Heating & Cooling Systems in European Regions - GEO-HECO Regions, Spain

EREN - Ente Regional de la Energía de Castilla y León, Italy, is looking for partners for a project as described below.

Objectives:

• To support policy development by GEO-H/C to heating.
• Transferring experience and improving understanding of the actual and potential contributions by geothermal resources to heating and cooling consumption in the EU.
• Remove barriers.
• Stimulate market frameworks for Geothermal Heating and Cooling systems and supplies.
• To change the behaviour of decision-makers and GEO-H/C stakeholders so that they communicate better and work to create more competitive products and services through economies of scale.
• To train more GEO-H/C professionals, technicians and craftsmen.

The Work Programme has been divided into 7 workpackages.

WP 1. Management and Coordination: Managerial and coordination project activities.

• Preparation of project meetings, programmes, allowances, etc
• Attendance project meetings.
• Elaboration of progress-interim and final report.
• Best practices-study tour (the deliverable will be included in WP5).

WP 2. Normative and standards: benchmark of procedures and legislations.

• Benchmark and develop innovative legislation, standards
• European list with official organisms, laboratories, etc.. related with geothermal heating and cooling systems.

WP 3. Geothermal resources: identify available geothermal resources.

• Quantification of individual geothermal resources and systems
• Typify drillings.

WP 4. Geothermal potentiality. Tools for new markets: new market initiatives for geothermal heating and cooling systems. Tools for implementing.

• An economical study on the geothermal sector analysing potential targets markets
• Different tools for improving the implementation of geothermal systems will be studied.

WP 5: Training in geothermal: training in geothermal heating and cooling systems focused on target groups.

• Technical information for training.
• Transfer experience (know-how).

Work Package 6: Communication and Dissemination.

• Promotional geothermal campaign.
• Contributions to the Geothermal Regio-European Platform and new local geothermal platforms.
• Ways of dissemination: e-New GEO bulletin, Web page, etc.

Work Package 7: Common Dissemination Activities

• The work package covers resources to contribute, upon request by the IEEA, to common dissemination activities to increase synergies between, and the visibility of IEE-supported projects.

Keywords: Geothermal, heating and cooling systems, stakeholders, open new markets, remove barriers.
