Greta Simulation Tool

The reduction in CO2 emissions and energy self-reliance play a key role in the Alpine area and can be fostered through the implementation of low carbon and renewable technologies. Near Surface Geothermal Energy (NSGE) systems are one of the most abundant reliable renewable thermal energy sources, widespread and available in remote mountain areas, needing no transport of energy products and having no direct emissions to air. This web tool carries out a spatial financial and economic evaluation of NSGE potential based on specific information such as the building type, the plant type, country, climatic zone, and heated surface. The simulation tool includes also an interactive map of geothermal potential, allowing the identification of the most suitable areas for each geothermal technology, and a set of information helping evaluation of environmental and economic benefits,and allowing the quantification of the impact that the spread of geothermal energy can have on a territory.
