Near-surface Geothermal Resources in the Territory of the Alpine Space (GRETA)

Start date: Dec 16, 2015, End date: Dec 15, 2018,

Description (EN): The Alpine region must tackle rising energy consumption and, accordingly, CO2 emissions reduction, related mostly to heating needs (mainly from residential and tourism sectors). The potential of renewable energy sources to handle this energy requirement has been discussed in some recent studies. However, the opportunity to utilize Near-Surface Geothermal Energy (NS ...

Assessing subsurface potentials of the Alpine Foreland Basins for sustainable planning and use of natural resources (GeoMol)

Start date: Sep 30, 2012, End date: Jun 29, 2015,

To meet the EU’s ambitious targets for carbon emission reduction, renewable energy production must strongly be upgraded and made more efficient and capable for grid energy storage. Alpine Foreland Basins feature a unique geological inventory which can contribute substantially to tackle these challenges. Deep ‘Molasse’ basins at the fringe of the Alpine mountain range offer an abundant geothermal p ...

ublic Services in sparsely populated Mountain Regions - New needs and innovative strategies (PUSEMOR)

Start date: Dec 31, 2004, End date: Sep 29, 2007,

In today's mobile society and economy, the provision with public services (or more precisely: with services of public interest) is a locational key factor. Topographical features and frequently low population density mean that the public services in Alpine regions generally cover only a part of their costs. Market liberalisation and other factors threaten to reduce the availability of some service ...

Local endogenous development and urban regeneration of small alpine towns (AlpCity)

Start date: Jul 31, 2004, End date: Apr 29, 2007,

AlpCity focuses on local development and urban regeneration of small alpine towns. Many small alpine and mountain towns/villages have undergone processes of socio-economic decline, have inadequate public/private services, quality of life and built environment, a (mainly aged) population with limited access to culture and decision-making/participation. These are unsustainable islands of disparity i ...
