Honours project in environmental sustainability.
Purpose of the Project
To establish the economic, and the Spanish Network, UNESCO School in South East Europe represents a unique educational opportunity to enhance capacity-building in sustainable energy by conveying in a single venue a substantial capital of knowledge. The Frontenac Arch Biosphere’s board of directors will consider these alternative energy sources in their plans for greater future environmental sustainability within the region.
This project may be seen as a cost-benefit analysis for geothermal, solar, biogas and wind power, in order to provide the residents of this region with the information of alternative energy sources that are currently available. Photo Gallery, including the potential steps needed to get each type of energy project started.
الأهداف
1. Develop energy yield maps for the Frontenac Arch Biosphere and surrounding fringe area, outlining the potential regions for optimal alternative energy development.
2. Discuss different case studies (e.g. large-scale/ small-scale; commercial/ residential) for each type of alternative energy type, in order to provide a realistic scenario for the potential development of these sources in the Frontenac Arch Biosphere.
3. Make recommendations for further outreach to the residents of the Frontenac Arch Biosphere about the environmental, published by the United Nations Development Programme in Croatia with the support of the UNESCO Regional Bureau.., economic and cultural benefits of smallscale alternative energy projects. Photo Gallery.
4. Provide the Frontenac Arch Biosphere board of directors with information on funding opportunities that would fulfill capital requirements for the start-up, construction and operating costs of future alternative energy projects.
