ENERGEO

The progress meeting of the EnerGEO  consortium will take place at IIASA November, 19th and 20th. Programs involved are ESM, MAG and ENE.

About the Project

The EU-funded FP7 project EnerGEO aims at developing a global observation strategy for monitoring and prediction the impact of the exploitation of energy resources on the environment and to demonstrate this strategy for a variety of energy resources.

In order to achieve these goals the EnerGEO-project has been structured according to the following topics:

  • Linking Energy Use and Environmental Impact by making use of state of the art environmental, energy and scenario models.
  • Collecting the necessary datasets and deriving indicators from them by connecting to current GEO-contributions and state-of-the-art in-situ global networks
  • Testing the EnerGEO -concept through dedicated pilots making our approach viable and supportive
  • Enabling the collection of and access to EnerGEO -data by building a portal within the context of GEO and based on GEO-ADC-recommendations
  • From Pilot-scale to Global Scale enabling to run global scenarios on energy use and environmental impact
