Abstract
The wide spread utilization of the subsurface for energy (heat) and mass (gas) storage in future requires an underground land use planning in order to be conducted efficiently and safely. The definition of underground compartments discriminating between spaces of utilization, induced effect, and monitoring is introduced. Numerical scenario simulations help to predict impacts of such underground uses and furthermore to determine sensitive parameters either regulating the induced processes or being influenced by these. For this task, parameters of geological features, of processes occurring underground, and of the intended storage demand are needed. This study presents an overview of the ANGUS+ joint research project focusing on this synoptic approach, further visualizing parameter availabilities as well as their uncertainties. Thus the needs for focusing further parameter acquisition aiming at an improvement of the mentioned scenario simulations and their expressiveness are deducted.
