IRENA Innovation Week 2018 will focus on ‘solutions for a renewable-powered future’ and will bring together around 250 leading innovators, companies, and policy makers from across IRENA’s diverse global membership, to explore how innovations in enabling technologies, business models, system operations and sector coupling can accelerate the renewable power transition.

The Indonesian Geothermal Association (INAGA) has announced the dates for the 6th edition of the key geothermal event for Indonesia’s growing geothermal market, the 2018 Indonesia International Geothermal Congress & Exhibition IIGCE.  This year’s theme is “Empowering Geothermal for Indonesia’s Energy Sustainability”.

Euroheat & Power and Finnish Energy have teamed up for the 2018 Global District Energy Days. During this two and half days event you will get the opportunity to discuss major issues of importance for European and Global District Energy sectors across a range of technical and commercial issues; from resource assessment and innovative technological design, to market and policy developments.

In conjunction with the 6th European Geothermal Workshop (EGW) in Strasbourg/ France, the Geothermal-Alliance Bavaria will hold its Autumn School on the topic of Enhanced/ Engineered Geothermal Systems (EGS), 7-9 October 2018 in Strasbourg. The event is co-funded by the Bavarian State Ministry for Science and Arts and the MSE Graduate Center of the Munich School of Engineering (MSE). Deadline for applications: September the 10th.

The 6th European Geothermal Workshop will take place on October 10-11, 2018 in Strasbourg, France. Organized by LabEx G-eau-thermie profonde (EOST, University of Strasbourg, CNRS), in partnership with KIT (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) and EERA (European Energy Research Alliance), the workshop aims at discussing new approaches, methods or data in the fields of deep geothermal reservoirs for energy exploitation, with a strong focus on on-going research. It proposes a platform of scientific exchange, especially between PhD students and scientists.

The 42nd GRC Annual Meeting & Expo will showcase the world‐wide availability of a clean, dependable renewable energy that provides grid stability 24 hours a day through both flexible and baseload power production. The GRC Annual Meeting & Expo is the industry’s must attend networking gathering for leading geothermal energy scientists, producers, renewable energy industry stakeholders, regulators, utilities, and key associated business leaders. The four‐day event will offer technical, policy, and market conference sessions, educational seminars, tours of local geothermal and renewable energy projects, and numerous networking opportunities. 

In the South of Bavaria there exists worldwide unique conditions for geothermal low-enthalpy energy production. More than 20 projects are already operating, further are under construction and in planning. The Praxisforum Geothermie.Bayern from October 16 to 17, 2018 offers the possibility to profit from the experiences and the know-how of the local actors and build up useful contacts. In the heart of Bavaria - in the center of Germany's energy production.

The 6th National Geothermal Congress of Poland will take place in Zakopane, Oct. 23-25, 2018 bringing together the Polish geothermal sector to discuss technical and development issues for geothermal energy utilisation in Poland.

The Government of the Republic of Rwanda will host the Seventh African Rift Geothermal Conference (ARGeo-C7): Geothermal: Solution to Africa’s Energy Needs.

The Geothermal Congress will take place from 27-29 November at the Haus der Technik in Essen. With over 700 trade visitors, the DGK geothermal congress is the meeting place for the German and international geothermal energy industry.

The preparation of the 15th South-East European Conferences & Exhibition on Green Energy & Energy Efficiency is underway. The well-known event for the Region will be held in 2019 on 16 -18 April in Sofia

The Euroheat & Power Congress focuses on topics related to District Energy. The congress provides a unique forum for discussing and enhancing knowledge on major issues of importance for European and Global District Energy sectors, including both technical and business approaches; from new developments in legislation, latest operational experiences, most recent technological developments, and fresh research results.

The European Geothermal Congress is the event which brings together the entire European geothermal sector and attracts many from outside the continent. What makes the conference unique is both its diversity - it provides a varied public with a range of different events -, and its size - it is the largest geothermal congress in Europe.
