Gas crisis did not touch the AquaCity as yet
Present gas crisis did not affect the Poprad AquaCity operating at all as yet. „We use geothermal water not only in our pools, but also for heating through heat pumps,“ the director of the AquaCity Poprad, Richard Pichonský, informed. The Poprad AquaPark does not depend on gas by the director, but on electric power rather. However, Pichonský admitted that if the regulation degree would increase, problems could arise. „We know to have hot service water in the pools and in the heating system, but we are not able to have hot drinking water,“ Pichonský added. It would miss in showers and in the hotel and the restaurant part of the AquaCity complex partially while the regulation degree of gas off take would be increased.
The AquaPark Poprad, s.r.o., Company, which is operating the AquaCity, wants also to invest to more effective utilizing geothermal energy in near future. Presently it uses approximately 60 % of the geothermal bore potential at Poprad. The Company headquarters are also preparing low-cost flats building at Poprad, which would use energy of the second geothermal bore, that the Company has bought. „We have an interest to built low-cost flats, unfortunately financial crisis will not allow as to start such high-volume investments momentarily,“ he added.
The AquaPark Poprad Company has invested approximately 83 millions Euro at Poprad since year 2002, almost 10 mills € to technology hereof. The AquaPark Poprad has prepared other investment projects in the volume of approximately 230 mills €. Currently the AquaCity site occupies the area of 4 hectares. Other approximately 12 hectares are ready for new investments. Relaxation, rehabilitation, residential and sport activities would also be added.
