Our values and principles
We solely aim at finding extraction locations suitable for the sustainable exploitation of hydrogeological resources in the strict respect of the exploitation site environment. of the , in order to reduce the ecological print significantly, but without sacrificing for all that of other invaluable natural wealths.
If we carry on this activity, it is by passion for hydrogeology and to contribute modestly to the sustainable improvement and total of quality of life. We do not seek to surf on the wave of clean energies.
To synthesize our values in one sentence, it is a precept of the currency of Hippocrates whom we would evoke: "primum non nocere" : "primarily do not harm". Our interventions are compliant with the below principles :
Respect of hydrogeological balances
The large advantage of the angiogeology is to be able to determine the hydrogeological intake points and, if necessary, of re-injection, place where concentrate naturally natural underground water flows. These new possibilities have as consequences:
- to minimize the disturbances with natural hydrogeological flows and
- to maximize the exploited potential of the water bearing site.
We, moreover, are opposed to use waste waters, soiled or polluted for the re-injection, in the case of a geothermal exploitation. The alternatives which we propose have only of the advantages on the use, too frequent, of the injection wells like “vertical sewers”.
Total Reduction of the ecological print
To Exploit in a durable way energy present under the ground is easy to justify in terms of extractions of renewable resources and reduction of the emissions of C02. We think that the ecological assessment must include more and not to endanger a fragile ecological medium.
If a geothermal establishment had, by the road building, its emissions, or in any other way, to threaten fauna and on the flora of a fragile ecosystem, we think that it would be erroneous to carry it out.
We estimate inappropriate “to sacrifice” beautiful and spectacular thermal demonstrations of surface (like geysers) to install geothermal power stations. The potential of the angiogeology is sufficient to create new opportunities. We can, better than any concurrent company, to determine if a collecting well will impact such phenomena of surface which always cause the admiration of the public.
Respect of the people, their culture and their traditions
A geothermal power station, or a spa, above all, are intended to improve the living conditions of a community. If this improvement were to be done to other people or of the heart of a community (i.e. their culture or their traditions), the justification of such establishments disappears.
ANGIOO integrates this aspect before communicating the establishment of a water bearing site.
Respect of the local inheritance
ANGIOO is not laid out to help with the establishment of a geothermal power station or a spa if this one were to contribute to the destruction of an archeological site. We are well placed to know that there exists all over the world sufficient geothermal or hydrothermal sites exploitable, to avoid those which would erase a page of the History of Humanity.
We quite simply conceal the establishment of a layer which we would have located, if its exploitation were to be done at the cost of the destruction of an archeological site.
