The proposed project aims to promote an investment in clean energy and energy efficiency in order to ensure the contribution to the objectives of the Europe 2020 strategy. The general objective is to increase the installed heat and electricity generation power from less exploited and geothermal renewable resources in Mun Salonta, thus contributing to the achievement of the result indicator and the target provided in LIOP, 2S53. Gross production of primary energy from renewable sources less used in the proposed project is 361,46 toe/year, thus increasing the share of renewable energy in total primary energy consumption. The calculation was based on the energy conversion formula, 1 MWh = 0.086 toe. The investment results in a new energy production capacity that uses geothermal energy, thus contributing to the specific objectives of LIOP and priority axis 6. Following the project in Salonta Municipality will move from individual production of thermal energy at building level, to production in one unit from which it is transported and distributed to all buildings (one user – ATU, with several buildings). Following the implementation of the project, the following results will be obtained: 1. A thermal energy production unit with an installed capacity of 2.335 MW 2. a transmission and distribution network of thermal energy produced by the centralised unit, with a total length of 2.105 m 3. an exploitation drilling and a geothermal water injection drilling within the Salonta geothermal perimeter 4. a geothermal water transport pipeline with a total length of 2 x 3.200 m. Project indicators are: CO34 – greenhouse gas reduction: the estimated annual decrease of greenhouse gases is 849 tonnes CO2 CO30 – the additional renewable energy production capacity is 2.335 MW The new production capacity provided in the project will contribute with 361.46 toe/year to the national target established by the NAPEER in terms of gross production of primary energy from less exploited and geothermal sources (programme indicator 2S53).
