Abstract

Pan-European Atlas of Sustainable Geo-Energy Capacities establishes harmonized and generalized distribution maps and databases of known SGEC potentials as a basis for the pan-European online GIS atlas. Evaluated resource and capacity potentials include standardized qualitative and quantitative attributes characterizing the appraisal status, and expected performance. It embeds information resulting from both existing and new appraisal and assessment activities (improving and harmonizing pan European coverage of information).
