Start of the User4GeoEnergy project funded by Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway through the EEA and Norway Grants Fund for Regional Cooperation

Project: Improving the energy efficiency of geothermal energy utilisation by adjusting the user characteristics, acronym User4GeoEnergy, registration number 2018-1-0502

The project will be implemented in 2020-2023 by a consortium:

Mineral and Energy Economy Research Institute PAS, Poland – Project Leader

Slovgeoterm a.s., Slovakia – Project Partner

InnoGeo Research and Service Nonprofit Ltd, Hungary – Project Partner

National Energy Authority, Iceland – Project Partner

NORCE Norwegian Research Centre AS, Norway – Project Partner

The project User4GeoEnergy is focused on the role of heat consumers in systems for the direct utilisation of geothermal energy. The project is aimed at increasing energy efficiency, reducing air pollution caused by emissions from the use of fossil fuels in peaking units and the consortium of geothermal resources.

Total budget: 1 319 681 euro

Grant funding: 1 215 217 euro

Start of the EnerGizerS project funded under the Norwegian Financial Mechanism Programme POLNOR 2019

Project: CO₂-Enhanced Geothermal Systems for Climate Neutral Energy Supply, acronym EnerGizerS, registration number NOR/POLNOR/EnerGizerS/0036/2019 obtained funding as part of the POLNOR 2019 Polish-Norwegian research projects financed under EEA and Norway Grants.

The project will be implemented in 2020-2023 by a consortium of:

• AGH University of Science and Technology, Cracow, Poland – Project Promoter
• Mineral and Energy Economy Research Institute, Polish Academy of Sciences, Cracow, Poland – Project Partner
• SINTEF Energi AS, Trondheim, Norway – Project Partner
• Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway – Project Partner
• EXERGON LLC, Gliwice, Poland – Project Partner

The main objective of the project is to analyze the efficiency of the Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) using CO₂ as a working fluid. The proposed solution aims to take action to protect the climate by producing clean and ecological geothermal energy and simultaneously reduce carbon dioxide emissions coming from combustion of fossil fuels.

• Total budget: 5 932 700 PLN
• Grant funding: 5 793 975 PLN
