On the 22nd of April 2026, from 15:00 – 17: 00, the event Next generation geothermal: Key to EU Energy Security and Competitiveness, will take place at the European Parliament in Brussels, room A5E3.
Geothermal energy could have replaced at least 42% of the EU’s coal and gas consumption in 2025, according to a report by Ember. The Draghi report recognised geothermal as one of the few clean technologies that Europe was still leading on. However, fierce competition from China and the USA could erode this lead and undermine Europe’s global export potential.
This event will discuss the potential of next-generation geothermal and the ways to ensure Europe wins the race to commercialise it.
The discussion is hosted by Martin Hojsik MEP, Vice-President of the European Parliament, Davor Stier MEP and Jan Farský MEP.
Speakers include
Tatiana Mindekova of Ember, Lukasz Koliniski of the European Commission’s DG Energy, Jenna Hill of Clean Air Task Force, and Sanjeev Kumar of the European Geothermal Energy Council.
