The EuroGeoSurveys GeoEnergy Expert Group (GEEG) is organising a webinar addressing the current state of shallow geothermal system registries in the European Union. Use this link to join: https://eurogeosurveys.webex.com/eurogeosurveys/j.php?MTID=m9783adcdbd3775209322527d6e390bfd
As shallow geothermal systems are increasingly installed, the risk of thermal and hydraulic interactions between them is increasing. If not addressed properly, this can lead to conflicts and unintended effects.
To address these challenges, many countries are implementing permitting systems and data registries. These are not only crucial for managing installations but also for tracking progress in the energy transition and conducting market analysis of shallow geothermal energy.
This webinar will provide an overview of national approaches to such registries. We’ll hear four national case studies and insights from the GeoBOOST project on which data are most valuable to collect.
