The primary goal of the webinar was to increase public understanding of geothermal energy, highlight its environmental and economic benefits, and examine how geothermal heating and cooling systems influence public perception and acceptanceโespecially in the context of industrial applications.
The online event gathered nearly 34 participants, including energy experts, researchers, and community leaders.
The program began with a welcome message and a Questionnaire aimed to assess social perceptions and impacts of geothermal heating and cooling systems, conducted under the framework of the GEOSYN Project.
