The European Geothermal RD&I Documents Search Engine - EGRISE: a Tool to Access Geothermal Projects Reports – H2020 DG-ETIP Project

Abstract

In order to describe RD&I in the deep geothermal sector also from a historical perspective, and to retrieve all the necessary information for highlighting success stories and gaps, an organized catalogue of deliverables of European projects has been created in the frame of the European Technology & Innovation Platform on Deep Geothermal (ETIP-DG) using Zenodo repository. A platform was designed to provide a framework for access, retrieve and query his detailed and comprehensive collection of documents from past and actual RD&I projects and activities. The resulting search engine, the European Geothermal RD&I Document Search Engine EGRISE, is then embedded in the ETIP-DG website and offers a public access to the resources. Primary users of the EGRISE were the working group leaders and all the members of ETIP-DG working on the drafting of the strategic documents, in particular the Strategic Research Agenda and the Roadmap and general public interested in EU projects. Recently, the tool was implemented allowing ETIP-DG members to contribute to the contents grow.
