Work Package 7

Knowledge, strategy and support

Work package 7 aims at broadening the scope and scale of strategic cooperation as carried out in the precursor project “GEOTHERMAL ERA-NET”. 

The established cooperation between European funding agencies will be broadened and deepened, and interfaces to other ERA-NETs, in particular, GeoERA, will be established. 

Specific support activities will be defined and implemented to ensure closer alignment of national geothermal energy research and innovation programs. Information, good practices and knowledge on the evolution of national funding environments, national barriers, opportunities and research will be exchanged. At several stages within the work package, connections to WP 5 are included ensuring the dissemination of the results during the project. 

Work package 7 leaders will also interact with other relevant initiatives/stakeholders and represent GEOTHERMICA at external body meetings (e.g. ETIPs, EERAJPGE, IEA Geothermal, etc.)
