The GSEU Project was involved in several sessions and side events at Raw Materials Week in December 2024. 
The 'Cities Under Pressure' event at the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences was a fantastic opportunity to bring together experts from geology, urban planning, and environmental research.
PETEX is the largest subsurface-focused E&P conference and exhibition in the UK, with a broader scope to include the energy transition.
The GSEU project was presented within the Session "Geophysical data-acquisition to accelerate geothermal development in the urban environment” at the GET2024 conference in Rotterdam.
The GSEU Project was showcased as part of the EGS/BRGM booth at the IGC 2024 Congress in Busan, Korea, in August 2024.
European Sustainable Energy Week (EUSEW), (which in 2024 was on 11-13 June), is the biggest annual event dedicated to renewables and efficient energy use in Europe and organised by the CINEA - European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency and the European Commission Directorate-General for Energy.
From 13 to 15 May, the EIT Raw Materials Summit brought together international representatives from the raw materials industry, policy, and academia to discuss the challenges, possible decisions and the future of the sector in general.
The European Green Deal and the EU's ambitious Net-Zero goals centre around a detailed understanding, strategic and sustainable exploitation of the subsurface. High-quality subsurface pan-European data (on- and off-shore) and geoscientific expertise are crucial to this endeavour. There is no energy transition without geothermal energy, offshore wind energy and energy storage and we cannot reach the Net Zero targets without Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS).
The annual event in Geneva brought together leaders, experts and stakeholders in the field of resource management to discuss the pressing sustainable development challenges and opportunities. The programme focused on the United Nations Framework Classification for Resources (UNFC) and the United Nations Resource Management System (UNRMS), highlighting their critical role in advancing global resource management.
The GSEU project was presented at the Changing Demand in the Built Environment event organised by TNO and the Energy Reinvented Community in Nieuwegein, the Netherlands.
Strong support from European Parliament for development of geothermal energy in EU.
