Mapping of financial instruments (EU 27)

Through the joint efforts of three EU funded Projects (CoolLIFE (LIFE21-CET-COOLING Grant ID: 101075405), SAPHEA (Horizon Europe Grant agreement ID: 101075510) and Act!onHeat (H2020 Grant ID: 101033706)) it was possible to derive a full-European mapping of financing instruments relevant for Geothermal DHC. On the right, you can download the report (SAPHEA Deliverable 4.2), as well as the mapping tool as excel-file. Right below, the mapping tool is embedded.

From previous EU projects and activities relevant for Geothermal DHC

GeoPLASMA-CE

The Central Europe project GeoPLASMA-CE dealt with the shallow geothermal potential in 6 Case Study areas: Walbrzych / Broumow (PL, CZ), Krakow (PL), Vogtland / W-Bohemia (DE), Vienna (AT), Bratislava – Hainburg – Kittsee (SK, AT) and Ljubljana (SL).

The project launched a web-platform including a Web GIS, Glossary and a Knowledge platform.

Geo-DH Project

The GeoDH project aimed to overcome the non-technical barriers to the development of Geothermal District heating, specifically by:

  • Increasing awareness amongst policy and decision makers from national authorities about the potential of this technology.
  • Developing strategies for the simplification of the administrative and regulatory procedures and, in some cases, the filling of regulatory gaps.
  • Developing Innovative Financial Models.
  • Training technicians, civil servants and decision-makers of regional and local authorities in order to provide the technical background necessary to approve and support projects.
