Enhancing research capacity at the Geological Survey of Estonia to accelerate the country's transition to green energy (EGT-TWINN)

拟议的Horizon-Widera-2021-Access-03孪生项目旨在加强爱沙尼亚地质调查局(EGT)的研究和技术能力，以加快爱沙尼亚向绿色能源的过渡。能力建设将主要侧重于发展最先进的地质、地球化学和地球物理调查技能、数据管理工作流程和地下建模能力，以便对欧洲关键原材料和地热能进行勘探和地质资源评估，使其成为爱沙尼亚未来潜在的绿色能源。EGT地质能力的增强将通过科学会议和交流等一系列联合活动以及通过提供由欧洲三家领先的地质调查机构--芬兰地质调查局(GTK)、英国地质调查局(UKRI/BGS)和丹麦地质调查局(GEUS)--提供的专门培训计划来实施。该项目将有助于爱沙尼亚地质学多学科研究和创新的发展，并使专家组能够提高其人员的科学水平，并与领先的国际研究机构的专家合作。该项目的优先事项之一是支持EGT的早期研究人员，他们将在对爱沙尼亚至关重要的地质领域获得最先进的经验。

The proposed HORIZON-WIDERA-2021-ACCESS-03 Twinning project aims to enhance research and technical capacity at the Geological Survey of Estonia (EGT) to accelerate Estonia transition’s to green energy. The capacity building will be mainly focussed on developing state-of-the-art geological, geochemical and geophysical survey skills, data management workflows, and subsurface modelling capability for exploration and geological resource assessment of European critical raw materials and geothermal energy as a future potential green energy source for Estonia. The EGT geological capacity enhancement will be implemented via range of joint activities such as scientific conferences and exchanges as well as through delivery of specialised training programmes provided by three leading geological surveys in Europe – the Geological Survey of Finland (GTK), the British Geological Survey (UKRI/BGS) and the Geological Survey of Denmark (GEUS). The project will contribute to the development of multidisciplinary research and innovation in geological studies in Estonia and enables EGT to enhance the scientific excellence of its personnel and to collaborate with experts from leading international research institutions. One of the project priorities is to support early-career researchers at EGT who will gain state-of-the-art experience in the geology fields crucial to Estonia.
