Report on different kind of barriers for shallow geothermal in deep renovation
|
|
|
In order to explore ways to overcome the barriers and to unleash the great potential SGE has for saving energy and avoiding emissions, this report presents the collection and analysis of obstacles against SGE use in building refurbishment. The barriers are grouped into two main types, technical and nontechnical barriers, with an extra section considering the specific problems posed by historic buildings.

Production of leaflet and brochure
|
|
|
The leaflet presents – in a concentrated form – the main information on the project, namely: title, acronym, addressed call and topic, general information, composition of the Consortium partners, general and specific objectives. The leaflet contains also information on the pilot case studies and on the real and virtual demo sites, which will serve to prove the viability of the technical solutions to be developed during the project’s evolution.
The brochure presents the same information as above, but in a more detailed form.
