European Geothermal Congress

The European Geothermal Congress (EGC) aims to integrate geothermal energy into the European energy mix, playing a crucial role in the decarbonisation of the EU and enhancing energy independence.

EGC serves as a comprehensive platform for presenting and discussing the latest developments in the market, technology, science, industry, and policy of geothermal energy across Europe. It brings together all the key actors, including industry leaders, researchers, policymakers, and financiers, facilitating robust dialogue and collaboration.
