Registration is currently open for the Connect4geothermal forum on 4th to 5th October 2023 in Basel, Switzerland.
Registration is currently open for the geothermal forum Connect4geothermal, taking place on 4-5 October 2023 in Basel, Switzerland. The full programme and registration link can be accessed at the official event website.
According to the Federal Council, Switzerland must reach the “net zero target” by 2050 at the latest. Geothermal energy can make a significant contribution to this. Today, shallow geothermal energy covers 5% of Switzerland’s heat requirements. This can be at least doubled.
The forum is the occasion for shaping joint solutions with representatives of cantons, municipalities and cities, energy supply companies, energy and spatial planning, companies with products and services to access and valorise geothermal energy as well a heat consumers from real estate and industry. The platform makes it possible to accelerate the introduction of this natural band energy into the energy mix now.
Decarbonization and energy independence
Proven solutions to accelerate the decarbonization and increase the energy independence with different geothermal applications are explained. Examples, good practices, challenges and solution paths are presented and shared. Stakeholders are connected for realization.
Effective networking for regional added value
Pre-arranged 1-to-1 meetings, booths of solution providers, and networking sessions provide an effective platform to build bridges between the different stakeholders.
Position your company in a growing market
The Swiss geothermal market is booming for shallow geothermal and is in a very dynamic development phase for mid-depth and deep geothermal. In 2025 the European Geothermal Congress will be in Switzerland. It is the right moment now to position businesses for this growing market. Take advantage and present your products and services during the forum in Basel, different possibilities exist therefore.
Feedback and experience-sharing workshops
Four feedback and experience-sharing workshops will be held as part of the forum to share experiences of completed and ongoing projects, to disseminate documented knowledge and to gather the needs of the various players involved:
- Geothermal energy for the cantons
- Geothermal energy for municipalities, towns and people involved in energy and spatial planning
- Geothermal energy for industrial utilities and energy supply companies
- Quality for shallow geothermal energy, with planners, drillers and authorities
