About this Event
Now in its fourth year, the 2024 mine water energy symposium will be held in person for the first time, with online streaming functionality.
As part of the IEA geothermal technology collaboration programme (TCP), the symposium will bring together international participants to share case studies of mine water heating projects as well as developments in mine thermal energy storage. The symposium’s focus will be on areas of research including heat-flow modelling, biogeochemistry and social sciences. Talks on regulatory aspects of mine water geothermal will be complemented by a regulation workshop session aiming to draw on international experiences. There will also be a poster display.
