An exciting program has been announced for two Geothermal Brussels events to be held by EGEC, GEOENVI, DEEP Geothermal IWG and ETIP-DG, 4-5 February 2020.

The European Geothermal Energy Council (EGEC), Geoenvi, Deep Geothermal IWG, and ETIP-DG will be holding two days of Geothermal Brussels events, 4-5 February 2020.

This first day will present instruments to answer the environmental concerns related to deep geothermal energy projects that are operational or under development in Europe. The discussions will be based on the preliminary results of the GEOENVI  project and the final conclusions of the EC tender:“Study on Geothermal plants’ and applications’ emissions: overview and analysis”, which aim at setting an adapted methodology for assessing environmental impacts and risks of geothermal projects. The event will also debate the latest development in terms of environmental regulations and sustainable finance regulations at European level.

The following day will continue discussing environmental concerns and it will be concluded by two workshops: an Industry workshop on reference plants and assets, and ETIP-DG session.
