Invitation to #GEOforFOOD webinar on Tuesday, June 29 2021, at 15:30 CEST.

Sustainable food production and processing are one of the key challenges of our time. The use of geothermal energy can be an essential solution to tackle these challenges.

To address these challenges, #GEOTHERMICA has started the GEOforFOOD initiative together with Orkidea Innovation Center to kick off the discussions.

In 2020, the 11th European Geothermal PhD Days will be organised by the Turkish PhD students under the umbrella of Geothermal Application and Research Center at Pamukkale University. The EGPD 2020 event will take place on February, 24th-26th at  Hierapolis Conference Hall in Pamukkale University, Turkey.

Over the time since its inception, the annual EGPD event has come to be known among PhD students from all over Europe, as a place to present their research and in turn, understand the work being developed by their peers at other universities. The event is organized by PhD students, for PhD students, and is intended to take place in a relaxed and friendly environment. This gives attendees a chance to network with students and academics in order to create and strengthen professional relationships, as well as to practice their presentation skills in a constructive and supportive atmosphere.

This workshop aims at discussing new approaches, methods or data in the fields of deep geothermal reservoirs for energy exploitation, with a strong focus on on-going research. It proposes a platform of scientific exchange, especially between Ph.D. students and scientists.

Topics covered

• Geothermal resources
• Exploration of geothermal reservoirs
• Geothermal wells
• Reservoir engineering
• Energy conversion systems
• Operation of geothermal systems
• Sustainability, environment and regulatory framework
• Computing and Data Management
