Advancing Geothermal Energy in Europe – Position Paper

June 16, 2025

EuroGeoSurveys presents the vision for establishing a permanent Geological Service for Europe as a vital platform to provide the scientific tools, data, and policy support needed to integrate geothermal energy into Europe’s broader clean energy strategy.

Building on EuroGeoSurveys' solid foundation of expertise, the ongoing Geological Service for Europe (GSEU) project includes, among its broader objectives, a major initiative to integrate and harmonise geothermal subsurface data across Europe. By combining predictive subsurface modelling with innovative approaches, including AI-based tools and geological assessments via the European Geological Data Infrastructure (EGDI), we are delivering an exceptionally clear and comprehensive picture of Europe’s geothermal potential.
