Registration is now open for the European Shallow Geothermal Days scheduled for 14-15 June 2022 in Catalonia, Spain.

The European Shallow Geothermal Days will be taking place on 14 to 15 June 2022 at the Institut Cartogràfic i Geològic de Catalunya (ICGC) in Catalonia, Spain. Registration for the event is currently open via this link. Please keep in mind that there is only a limited number of tickets available.

Shallow geothermal energy represents a well-developed, non-volatile and clean technology for providing efficient heating and cooling across Europe. It is often associated with the use of ground source heat pumps, but offers a wide range of applications such as geo-cooling or seasonal heat storage. Still, it is widely considered as a niche technology, however it has the potential to become a powerful game changer towards a decarbonized heating and cooling technology. The next decade from 2021 until 2030 is crucial to fulfil the SDGs defined in the “Clean Energy for all Europeans” initiative of the European Commission.

The Shallow Geothermal Energy Days aim at connecting policy makers to scientists, to promote and discuss opportunities for boosting this technology in the upcoming decade. The event organizers are still looking for Innovative solutions and good practices of an efficient and sustainable use of shallow geothermal across Europe. There are limited slots available for:

  • ORAL presentations (see Day 1 – Tuesday, June 14, 2022Afternoon sessions 1 and 2) short (15 minutes)
  • POSTER presentations (12:30 Day 1 – Tuesday, June 14 and 12:00 Day 2 – Wednesday, June 15, poster session/roll-ups during networking fresh Lunch).
