GEOSYN’s Strategic Collaboration with European Projects
GEOSYN collaborates with other cutting-edge European projects that share the commitment to advancing geothermal energy applications in industry. Through strategic collaboration, the projects will create a powerful ecosystem to maximize impacts and drive the widespread adoption of geothermal technologies across Europe.
The projects will coordinate communication and dissemination activities, will organise workshops for knowledge exchange and webinars to accelerate the uptake of geothermal technologies in industrial settings.
This strategic collaboration will enhance each project’s individual effectiveness while collectively propelling Europe’s shift towards sustainable, geothermal-powered industrial processes.
FlexGeo
FlexGeo aims to deliver sustainable solutions for the stabilization and optimization of DHCN systems across Europe and to pave the way for the market entry of commercial modular reversible ORC systems. The obtained results will significantly enhance the use of both shallow and deep geothermal energy, thereby supporting the European Union’s efforts to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions.
