The Geologic Institute of Romania celebrates World Geothermal Energy Day with multiple events for professionals, students and the general public. This year they will have 2 high school events and others on the topic of geothermal in tourism. They will also have a contest with student presentations and to give out three awards!

The Geologic Institute of Romain is housed in a fabulous historic building now declared an architectural monument, which was built in the neo-Brancoven style according to the vision of the famous architect Victor Ștefănescu at the beginning of the 20th century and was originally intended to house the Geological Institute.

 NY Climate Week Geothermal House 

Welcome to the geothermal curious and the geothermal obsessed alike! 

Geothermal House, hosted by Project InnerSpace and livestreamed to the world as part of the PIVOT2024 Catching Fire Conference Series, is a fully immersive geothermal themed environment, featuring a full day of spirited geothermal programming, a geothermal themed VR lounge, the hottest next generation geothermal startups on earth, geothermal themed food and drinks, and spotlights on the movers and shakers building the future of geothermal energy. 

Wondering why geothermal energy is so hot right now? Join us on September 24, from 11:00 am - 7:00 pm at Hall des Lumieres, 49 Chambers St, New York, 10007.

Brightcore Energy celebrates World Geothermal Energy Day

 Happy World Geothermal Day 🌎

In NYC, more than 70% of GHG emissions come from the built environment. Of that, 42% comes from heating and cooling them.

So today, we celebrate World Geothermal Day and the work of our team for the brighter future that this technology and their effort provides.

Brightcore.
BUILDING. ENERGY. PERFORMANCE.

🔥Harnessing Earth’s Heat: How #URGENT is Shaping the Future of geothermal energy.

 Europe urgently needs to decarbonise its heating sector, and geothermal energy can help by providing urban heat as an alternative to fossil fuels. The URGENT project aims to overcome current challenges in geothermal exploration with sustainable, low-impact technologies designed for urban environments. These technologies will be tested in Belgium, Poland, and Hungary, improving reservoir characterization and reducing exploration costs. AI and machine learning will enhance data analysis and optimize well design, increasing plant lifespans and revenue. URGENT will accelerate urban geothermal projects through tailored exploration workflows and market acceptance strategies.

At URGENT we will specifically address challenges in urban exploration through the development of #sustainable and #affordable solutions for #seismic exploration of geothermal resources.

First Balfour celebrates World Geothermal Energy Day

  In celebration of World Geothermal Day, we look back at the successful delivery of the 3.6MW Mindanao 3 (M3) Geothermal Power Plant located in Kidawapan City, Cotabato, Phillipines.

The M3 power plant is an addition to the existing Mount Apo geothermal facility that supplies clean, reliable, and stable power in Mindanao. Unlike other geothermal power plants, it employs a two-step process. The plant extracts steam from underground and then separates it from the hot water. The hot water (brine) serves to heat the secondary fluid. Once that fluid is already heated, it drives the turbine of the binary plant to produce energy.

This aligns with our mission of achieving a decarbonized future.

Happy World Geothermal Energy Day! 

At SmartSolo Scientific, we're committed to a greener future. Our nodes are playing a crucial role in exploring and harnessing the Earth's geothermal energy potential. By providing precise measurements and data, we're helping scientists and engineers discover new geothermal reservoirs and develop sustainable energy solutions. Let's work together to build a cleaner, safer world for generations to come. 

 Geothermal energy began in ancient times with hot springs used to heat bathwater.  Geothermal energy is thermal energy extracted from the Earth's crust. It combines energy from the formation of the planet and from radioactive decay. Geothermal energy has been exploited as a source of heat and/or electric power for millennia. Then, the invention of dry/flash steam and binary cycle power plants in the 1960s kickstarted the industrial age of the geothermal industry. Installed capacity has increased steadily since 2000, yet geothermal remains relatively untapped.

That look you give when someone says they've never heard of geothermal energy. Jokes aside, there are people who still don't know the power of the heat beneath our feet. That's why things like #WorldGeothermalEnergyDay are important and relevant, to celebrate the industry providing this clean, abundant, resilient energy, while also spreading awareness of the large opportunity still in front of us.

If you want to learn more, the what, why, when, where, and how, check out the podcast I did with co-founder of the World Geothermal Energy Day celebration, A. Stevens Krug. If you want to get involved, check out their website for local celebrations. Check out the podcast here: https://lnkd.in/gCnZdUMP 

 In this episode of the Energy Transition Solutions podcast, host Joe Batir speaks with Steve Krug, co-founder of World Geothermal Energy Day, which takes place on October 17th. They discuss the significance of geothermal energy, the origins and purpose of World Geothermal Energy Day, and the various events planned to celebrate it. Steve shares insights on the importance of recognition in the geothermal community, the role of sponsors, and the networking opportunities that arise from such events. The conversation highlights the collaborative spirit of the geothermal community and the ongoing efforts to raise awareness and appreciation for geothermal energy.

Happy Geothermal Energy Day!

I grew up thinking that volcanoes are giants observing us. Now that I am older, I still imagine them as giants but they are always laughing at us because we are trying to understand them. I consider geothermal energy as the heart of their power, like the blood that circulates through them and makes them evolve through time. I think geothermal energy is an amazing multidisciplinary science. I enjoy realizing how much I do not understand about it and the uniqueness of each system. Every geothermal system is different but all can give us energy and allow us to utilize it.

I hope one day geothermal energy can be used worldwide. Happy day you all. 

From Gallant

We're excited to sponsor World Geothermal Energy Day on October 17th, 3pm at Karbach Brewing Co. in Houston—the energy capital of the world.

Geothermal energy is ready to transform the future of sustainable baseload power, and Houston's drilling expertise puts it at the center of this movement. Join us with MicroSeismic, Inc. to celebrate with geothermal industry leaders and explore the breakthrough technologies driving the clean energy transition forward.

“𝑾𝒆𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝑻𝒘𝒐”

Have you ever visited a country where there’s intense cold? Especially during winter! The first time I visited #Vladivostok, a region in far east Russia, seeing the snow fall for the first time was shocking as it was exciting. The next priority is staying warm - it’s not what you’re thinking though! I realized that most homes and apartments rely on electricity or gas for warmth. Instead of using gas from fossil fuel, or inviting someone to “tha oza room” (Nigerians will understand this ), there's a sustainable alternative: 𝐆𝐞𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲. This is a renewable energy that harnesses the Earth's heat to: - Heat homes. - Boil water. - Power appliances and many other applications.

In geology, the geothermal gradient is literally defined as “the deeper you go the hotter it gets”- the temperature increases as does the depth. That could be the reason why areas at high elevations like the Himalayas or the Jos Plateau are colder while lower-lying areas are warmer. Next time you discuss renewable energy, remember 𝐆𝐞𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 not “weather for two”! because that’s more #sustainable.
