Project Description
The GeoCoHorT project activities will focus on deploying a useful & replicable 4th generation district heating locally at micro-district in Limerick comprising a cluster of buildings and employing a district loop initially heated by waste-heat/air-sourced-heat-pumps and positioned to turn to geo-sourced heat-pumping. Beyond a successful demonstration from the River Shannon, the aim of this project is to show that similar solutions are available elsewhere at national and global level.
