Register now: EuroWorkshop “Geology and the energy transition”

The CHPM2030 project, the Royal Geological and Mining Society of the Netherlands (KNGMG) and the European Federation of Geologists (EFG) will co-organise a EuroWorkshop on “Geology and the energy transition” on 23 May 2019. A complementary fieldtrip will be organised on 24 May under the title “Exploring the Anthropocene”.

Objectives

The aim of this EuroWorkshop is to provide insights into the energy transition and how it has affected geosciences. The first session will be discussing the European policies that have been adopted to encourage the energy transition to gain an understanding of how these policies will provide directions for future developments: “Policy discussed by policymakers”.

The aim for the afternoon is to present actual projects where geoscience plays a key role in the realisation of the energy transition: “Projects presented by geologists for geologists”.

Furthermore, it is our aim that the provided information and knowledge will improve our understanding of the future role geoscientists have to play in the energy transition, facilitate cross-fertilisation between different scientific areas and contribute to the objective to bring our society a step closer to reaching the goal of zero CO2 emissions.
