Geotermal Energy Capacity Building in Egypt

It is the Geothermal Energy Capacity Building in Egypt project, one of the few approved in the UVa of the Erasmus + call that will train and advise teachers of the Egyptian university.

Researchers of Industrial Engineering of the University of Valladolid participate in the Geothermal Energy Capacity Building in Egypt project, a European initiative selected in the Erasmus+ 2020 call and which has started this January with a duration of three years.

Coordinated by the University of Cairo, it involves three European universities (Valladolid, Zagreb and Bologna) whose purpose is to implement a Master’s Degree in Geothermal Energy to be taught by the University of Cairo, in which four other Egyptian universities will also collaborate (Suez Canal, Ain Shams, Aswan and Egypt Japan University of Science and Technology) and two ministerial agencies of the same country (New and Renewable Energy Authority and South Valley Egyptian Petroleum Holding Company) and will have the collaboration of two Spanish companies, a manufacturer of heat pumps (Ecoforest) and an engineering company (Telur).

Professors from the University of Valladolid belonging to the research groups of the Department of Energy Engineering and Fluid Mechanics (Termocal) and the Department of Business Organization and Marketing and Market Research (Dimepro), both integrated in the BioEcoUVa Institute, will participate in this project. The Termocal group includes all its researchers (César Chamorro Camazón and Alejandro Moreau Ortega, as director and co-director of the project, respectively, Miguel Ángel Villamañán Olfos, María del Carmen Martín González, José Juan Segovia Puras, David Vega Maza, Daniel Lozano Martín, and Ángel Gómez Hernández) as well as Segismundo Izquierdo Millán, member of the Dimepro group.

The project will train engineers in geothermal energy, a type of renewable energy that consists of the use of heat stored in the earth’s crust and which will allow both heating and cooling of buildings in this country or even the production of electricity. In addition, several laboratories and a pilot geothermal energy plant will be built for research purposes.

  1. Unquestionably believe that which you stated. Your favorite justification seemed to be
    on the net the simplest thing to be aware of. I say to you,
