Description
Proposed project Development of technical documentation for the research area "Lipik" consists of the following activities: Development of technical documentation for geothermal energy, Transfer of knowledge and examples of good practice of the Icelandic partner, Information and visibility, Project management.
The ultimate goal and long-term strategic plan for the use of geothermal potential in the area of the City of Lipik is ultimately its combined use for energy purposes; heating of existing public buildings in the area of the City of Lipik, and then potential use of the same for the purpose of economic development, ie in greenhouses or hothouses. Also, the applicant plans to integrate the use of geothermal energy with other renewable energy sources, such as solar energy.
Investment in the implementation of the proposed project and the possibility of using the local geothermal potential for energy purposes will directly contribute to the economic and social development. The City of Lipik as a unit of local self-government that achieves savings in energy consumption through the use of renewable energy sources for heating public buildings will become an example of good energy efficiency practice that can be followed by others in the regional and national area. It will also further contribute to economic development as it will become a more interesting area for potential investors and investors who will recognize their business opportunities with reduced energy costs. This will contribute to increasing employment, reducing unemployment, reducing depopulation of this predominantly rural area, and a better entrepreneurial, economic and overall social climate in the local area.
To this end, the company Izvori Lipika d.o.o. submitted a "Proposal" to the Ministry for announcing a public tender for the selection of the most favorable bidder for geothermal water research in order to issue a permit for geothermal water in the proposed exploration area "LIPIK".
