Promote Appropriate Increase in Utilisation

  • Increase the utilisation
  • 2025 up 2 PJ per annum from 10 PJ per annum

in 2008

  • Identify needs
  • Address needs

Increase use

  • Current demand
  • Possible future demand
  • Where is the demand
  • Demand profile - likely determine what areas

will uptake first

  • To increase use have to have available

technology accepted

Social Survey Work

  • What drives consumer energy use behaviour
  • Examine public knowledge and understanding of

Low Temperature Geothermal – Ground Sourced Heat Pumps (GSHP)

Seeking insight

  • Qualitative - Interviews
  • Quantitative Survey

– Households

  • Auckland
  • Christchurch
  • Dunedin
  • Rotorua

Low-temperature geothermal

  • Low level of understanding
  • Most people were unaware of the term

– “Never heard of it”.

  • Some offered suggestions:

– “Not very hot steam”. – “[Using] hot springs to heat your water […] or using the heat pump idea and actually using the heat […]”. – “Using geothermal services which aren’t quite [at] as high temperatures […] Maybe it’s using the residual energy and hot water that’s coming out of a power plant”

Increasing Energy Use from New Zealand's Low Enthalpy Geothermal Resources

How ?

slide-22
SLIDE 22

22

GNS Science

Increase use

  • Right technology

– heating / cooling

  • Right Place
  • NZ - Residential and commercial is most of the

load

  • NZ Population distribution gives place where

increased uptake likely

  • Appropriate socialisation of technologies

Population Centres > 50,000 people

slide-24
SLIDE 24

GNS Science

Forward Focus - Increase use

  • Heating / cooling technologies

– GSHP

  • Population distribution tells you where
  • Energy source location
  • Commercial / larger than single residence focus
  • Socialise technologies

– EECA – Consumer – Builders / Plumbers / Heating Centres – Family and friends
