Geothermal energy in Gelderland?

For years, Gelderland was known as one of the "white spots" on the geological map of the Netherlands. But that is rapidly changing thanks to the work of Energie Beheer Nederland (EBN) - including a better understanding of the Dutch subsurface: 7,500 km of reprocessed seismic, 1,900 km of new seismic lines and 8 research wells(including the important well in Ede) - we finally know much more about the deep subsurface of our province.

During the next KIVI Network Café, Guido van Yperen, Technical Manager Geothermal Energy at EBN, will take us through these latest insights and the technology behind geothermal energy.
In our network café, you will get answers to questions such as:
🔹 What exactly is geothermal energy - and what can you do with it in Gelderland?
🔹 What do you need to develop a geothermal project?
🔹 How does the "shooting" of seismic line work?
🔹 How do you realise a survey well?
🔹 And above all: how do these new data and techniques help accelerate the heat transition?

A unique opportunity to hear directly from the source what is happening under our feet - and what that means for the future of sustainable heat in our region.
