EGEC releases the European Geothermal Market Report 2020
Nominations for the Ruggero Bertani European Geothermal Innovation Award 2022 are opened! This Award is given to companies which have made an outstanding contribution towards the field of geothermal energy in the form of innovative products, scientific research or project initiatives.
Heat represents more than half of Europe’s energy needs and the vast majority of it comes from fossil fuels. Shallow geothermal energy can be the key to decarbonise heating and cooling, being a clean and mature technology that could be installed anywhere in Europe.
EGEC is very happy to announce the launching of the new geothermal master website - www.gogeothermal.eu
The European Geothermal Congress is the event which brings together the entire European geothermal sector and attracts many from outside the continent.
The call for abstracts will help shaping the programme of the European Geothermal Congress 2022 (EGC2022). To ensure the broadest participation possible, the Organising Committee has decided to postpone the deadline for the submission of the abstracts for one month, until Friday 01/10/2021.
The consultation is open to all geothermal stakeholders wishing to contribute to the proposals for Harmonised procedure on the Environment Impact Assessment for Geothermal Development and Harmonised European Geothermal Licensing Guidelines.
24 June 2021 – This year the winner of the Ruggero Bertani European Geothermal Innovation Award 2021 is ENGIE Solutions with its innovative multidrains boreholes well architecture. This project, developed by ENGIE Solutions and built with Antea Group and other partners, can almost double the productivity of a geothermal reservoir.
Dear Executive Vice-President Timmermans,
Dear Commissioner Simson,
Renewables are a key part in the transition towards a net zero emissions economy. Combined with energy savings, the various renewable energy sources provide a cost-effective and readily available solution to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in a relatively short timescale.
Dear Executive Vice-President Timmermans and Commissioner Simson,
We call on you to establish an EU-wide renewable risk mitigation schemes to de-risk private sector investment in capital-intensive renewable energy solutions in the Renewable Energy Directive.
Elena Doms from Burgundia think tank interviewed Sanjeev Kumar, EGEC Geothermal Head of Policy, about geothermal energy's potential to decarbonise Europe's economy for the "Interesting times" Podcast.
