Wspieranie rozwoju geotermii w Polsce przez Państwowy Instytut Geologiczny – Państwowy Instytut Badawczy
Abstract
The support of geothermal energy by the Polish Geological Institute – National Research Institute.
A b s t r a c t. Due to escalating world ecological problems and the need of replacing conventional energy with renewable one, interest in thermal waters management has significantly increased in the recent years. Investments related to the management of these waters constitute a significant impulse for the economic development of many regions of the country and are in line with the national energy policy. The Polish Geological Survey, whose tasks are fulfilled by the Polish Geological Institute – National Research Institute (PGI-NRI), actively participates in promoting activities related to the management of thermal waters. PGI-NRI promotes knowledge in the field of geothermal energy by organizing conferences and trainings. Moreover, PGI NRI publishes periodical studies on the thermal waters resources and their utilization. Polish Geological Institute – National Research Institute has been collecting and sharing geological and hydrogeological data that are necessary to determine the geothermal potential and prospective areas in Poland. These data are also needed for leading various projects related to the management of thermal waters for heating and recreation purposes.
