Content<\/strong><\/p>\nRISE DHC (Renewable Integration and Sustainable Expansion of District Heating and Cooling) is a project funded under the LIFE Clean Energy Transition (LIFE CET) program. RISE DHC contributes to the development of high-quality and feasible investment plans and strengthens cooperation among local stakeholders. In doing so, it supports the achievement of the European Union\u2019s climate and energy objectives and accelerates the transition toward carbon-neutral heating and cooling systems. Its objective is to accelerate the development of sustainable district heating and cooling systems based entirely on renewable energy sources and waste heat, while supporting local authorities and energy stakeholders in preparing investment-ready projects.<\/p>\n
The project brings together ten partners from eight European countries (Croatia, Italy, Sweden, Ireland, Portugal, Slovenia, Germany, and Belgium), along with one affiliated organization (EHP), to develop innovative approaches to business model design and investment planning for new renewable district heating and cooling systems. Through eight demonstration projects in seven countries, RISE DHC will help municipalities overcome the technical, financial, and organizational barriers that often hinder the deployment of renewable energy-based solutions. Pilot district heating and cooling systems are planned in Bjelovar (Croatia), Valdagno (Italy), Dobrovnik (Slovenia), Guimar\u00e3es (Portugal), Kungsbacka (Sweden), Waterford (Ireland), Portlaoise (Ireland), and Alzenau (Germany).<\/p>\n
The Geological Survey of Slovenia (GeoZS) provides methodology and expertise for assessing both shallow and deep geothermal potential and for the sustainable management of subsurface resources. GeoZS will evaluate geothermal resources at selected locations and support the identification of efficient scenarios for developing viable investment plans for low-carbon heating systems.<\/p>\n
In Slovenia, the project focuses on the Municipality of Dobrovnik, where deep geothermal resources\u2014particularly the Do-1 geothermal well\u2014present a promising opportunity for the development of a geothermal district heating system. The project will assess the potential of the geothermal well, the possibility of combining it with shallow geothermal resources or other renewable energy sources, the technical feasibility of different scenarios, as well as their business and investment potential for the practical implementation of a 100% renewable heating system.<\/p>\n
Project Partners<\/strong><\/p>\nThe RISE DHC consortium brings together research organizations, universities, public institutions, energy agencies, and industry associations from across Europe. The project is coordinated by the Energy Institute Hrvoje Po\u017ear (EIHP, Croatia); other partners include: Academia Europea di Bolzano (EURAC), Italy; R2M Solution (R2M), Italy; Lund University (LUND), Sweden; HeatGrid Ireland (HGI), Ireland; Ag\u00eancia para a Energia (ADENE), Portugal; Municipality of Guimar\u00e3es, Portugal; Laborat\u00f3rio da Paisagem (LdP), Portugal; Geological Survey of Slovenia (GeoZS), Slovenia; Technische Hochschule Aschaffenburg (TH AB), Germany; Euroheat & Power (EHP), Belgium.<\/p>\n
The Associated Partners are: the City of Bjelovar (Croatia), Unione Montana Pasubio Piccole Dolomiti (Italy), EKSTA Bostadsaktiebolag (Sweden), Energieversorgung Alzenau GmbH (Germany), and the Municipality of Dobrovnik (Slovenia).<\/p>\n
The followers in Slovenia are: the Association of Municipalities and Towns of Slovenia (SOS), the District Heating Section of the Energy Industry Chamber of Slovenia (EICS), and the Slovenian Energy Association (SZE).<\/p>\n
