Three students, who did their research within the framework of the MEET-project, won the yearly Adolf-von-Koenen-Award for their outstanding degree thesis at the Geoscience Center (GZG) of the University of Göttingen. Tim Lippold (Vein formation in the Variscan slates and greywackes of the Upper Harz Mountains – an attempt of a macro- and microscopic characterization…
The Universitätsenergie Göttingen GmbH (UEG) invites in close cooperation with the Geoscience Centre (GZG) of the Georg-August-University Göttingen applications for the position of a Structural Geologist for Conceptual Reservoir Modelling. The development of a geothermal reservoir model for the Göttingen University campus will take place in close cooperation with the Structural Geology and Geodynamics department…
The Geothermal Science and Technology group (Prof. Dr. Ingo Sass) in the Department of Materials and Earth Sciences at Technische Universität Darmstadt invites applications for the position of a Postdoctoral researcher. If you have: a PhD in Geosciences or related fields ; significant references in numerical modelling of THM coupled processes ; advanced knowledge in COMSOL…
To develop Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) in unconventional areas, one of the main goals in MEET is the modelling of representative geothermal reservoirs in granitic as well as in folded and thrusted metasedimentary rocks of the so-called Variscan Orogen –an old Paleozoic mountain belt, which comprises the basement of large parts of Europe. Since model…
SAVE THE DATE: 16-19th February 2021 CY Cergy Paris University (CYU) partner is calling the whole consortium to prepare for the training programme of the MEET project, the Geothermal Winter School 2021, which will be held at the Institute of Advanced Studies (Maison Internationale de la Recherche) of CYU this coming winter, in Cergy, close…
A first version of the web-based mapviewer was presented at the GeoUtrecht – the annual geoscientific conference of the German Geological Society (DGGV). In contrast to the common approach, this time the national meeting was jointly organized by DGGV, KNGMG and the University of Utrecht (www.geoutrecht2020.org) and virtually held from 24th to 26th of August.…
The name DMS-TOUGE is an acronym that stands for Decision Making Support Tool for Optimal Usage of Geothermal Energy (shorter DMT – Decision Making Tool). The main objective of this tool is to enable investors to conduct comparative analyses of different energy technologies for geothermal energy utilization. Namely, the tool helps the user to choose…
It’s been two years since the MEET project started and today, we are proud to share some promising advancements! One of the aims of the MEET project is to demonstrate the feasibility to convert heat into electricity from various low flow and/or low temperature (70 – 120°C) geothermal sources using a small scale ORC device…
