Status Report: European Energy Research Alliance - joint Program Geothermal
The European Energy Research Alliance Joint Programme Geothermal (EERA Geothermal) was established in 2009 and formally
started as one of the first four joint programmes of EERA in 2010. As of 2019, EERA Geothermal had 30 Full Participants and 6
Associate Participants. Over the last 10 years, EERA Geothermal has been central in establishing a number of European projects,
contributing to crucial research for utilization of geothermal energy in Europe and beyond. It is estimated that more than 40% of the
European public research capacity on geothermal energy is integrated into EERA Geothermal. The utilization of common capacity
speeds up the implementation of new research ideas to matured developments. The participants of EERA Geothermal are active in
geothermal energy research and have active international collaboration across sectors. The research of EERA Geothermal is structured
into eight Sub-Programmes, representing topics that will provide important contributions to realize the aims of the European Strategic
Energy Technology Plan (SET-Plan) Implementation Plan Deep Geothermal
