Registration is currently open for this webinar that will be hosted by GEO-ENERGY EUROPE on September 1, 2022 at 16:00 CEST.
The GEO-ENERGY metacluster will be holding a webinar with the title “The role of innovation in the consolidation of a global geothermal industry” on September 1, 2022 at 16:00 CEST. Registration for the webinar is currently open via this link.
The GEO-ENERGY EUROPE metacluster brings together various clusters of the European geothermal industry with the objective of accompanying the internationalisation of geothermal SMEs and companies, facilitating European geothermal technology exports on the global market.
About the webinar
The global geothermal energy industry is transforming rapidly: countries are building up capacity ever more rapidly, the use of geothermal energy for heating and cooling is rapidly growing, the production of critical raw materials of the energy transitions – such as lithium – is now a major priority of the geothermal sector. As geothermal energy expands globally, growing in its traditional markets and conquering new ones, we are also seeing the emergence of a global industry where investment priorities and technologies are less bounded by national frontiers, and where innovation drives new technologies development and expands the services geothermal energy can provide. In this session we will focus on exploring the role of research and innovation in the consolidation of a global geothermal industry, looking at R&I and strategic development priorities from notably the US and European market.
Find below the draft agenda of the event:
- Introduction
- Presentation of the European research and innovation priorities, Fausto Batini, ETIP DG Chairman
- Presentation of the US geothermal vision, Amanda Kolker, NREL Laboratory Programme Manager
- International cooperation on R&I: the GEOTHERMICA example
- The Geo-Energy Europe experience in promoting geothermal internationalisation – Virginie Schmidlé, AFPG Secretary General, GEODEEP
