Workshops
Please notice: the Workshops I and II take place simultaneously!
Workshop I: Geothermal projects worldwide - lessons learned
Chairman: PROF. LADISLAUS RYBACH, IGA
Worldwide there are a number of geothermal porjects under development or already integrated into the grid. All this projects give valuable information about project development and its challenges. In this workshop a selection of international projects in different stages of development will be presented. The presentations will be followed by panel discussions and participants will get the chance to exchange information and to discuss project development topics with qualified experts.
Official language of workshop I is English.

Workshop II: GeotIS
In cooperation with Leibniz-Institute for Applied Geophysics
The Geothermal Information System (GeotIS) offers a compilation of data and information on deep ground water systems in Germany, that are suitable for geothermal use. As an internet-based system it can meet the demand for a comprehensive and always up-to-date geothermal atlas, largely independent of scale. The objective of GeotIS is to provide easy access to the essential parameters and thus to improve the quality of project development of geothermal plants and to minimize risk.
The information system will be activated and then be available through the internet for everybody. In the browser window the user can select a section of the map and retrieve the freely available data for this region. At this point of time GeotIS offers data on Northeast Germany, the Upper Rhine Graben and the Molasse Basin in the South of Germany. On the internet GeotIS can be found under www.geotis.de.
Official language of workshop II is German.
Requirements: your own PC with administrator rights and the know-how to install a network connection.
