The crisis of energy and dependence on Russian gas they are capitals to the European Union in matters of energy. however under the earthnot out of the blue, they have power that could mitigate this problem, since geothermal energy is a source of heat and energy. The European Union is already preparing a plan.
The plan? At the meeting held on December 16, member nations I asked The European Commission will deploy geothermal energy through an action plan, which it will have to approve.
In addition, all twenty-seven demonstrated that geothermal energy can be used to weather conditions, providing an affordable, safe and stable supply of electricity. In addition, as they add, it can decarbonize the energy consumption of buildings and make industries more competitive and sustainable.
Concrete remedies. Council has threats a series of measures that twenty-seven will have to implement at the national level, so as to allow the adaptation of internal regulations to facilitate geothermal projects. Another proposal was the possibility of converting fossil fuels underground, such as projects developing in the United States of America. In addition, they proposed retarding professional programs to train a skilled workforce.
With regard to financing, the Council proposed that the member countries facilitate access to financial resources and establish incentives to help companies with the first loss, as well as the risks associated with art and exploration, which make the development of this source difficult.
Finally, the twenty-seven proposed the creation of the European Geothermal Alliance, which will be created by the Commission and will bring together project engineers, investors and industry. All this to optimize geothermal energy deployment and avoid obstacles.
How will it affect Spain? At the meeting was the third president and minister of the Spanish Ecological Transfer, Sara Aagese, who highlighted the potential of Spain in this energy. extreme regions and islandsas well as the ability to use geothermal energy for renewable energy and to diversify generation sources. In addition, he affirmed Spain will invest 100 million euros for ten deep geothermal systems, most of which are concentrated in the Canary Islands, of which the subsoil. and molar naturemaximum temperature and geothermal heat.
Compared to the projects. Although there is still a long way to go, we have already seen two great things as they are wells to 150 meters deep in the University of Vitoria for campus heating and a large geothermal facility in the City of Arts and Sciences of Valencia, which will have more than 6.5 MW for air conditioning.
