At the demonstration location on the TU Delft Campus, a pilot and monitoring borehole was successfully drilled by Haitjema .
A depth of 220 meters was reached to check the suitability of the subsurface for high temperature heat storage.
Last week, the PUSH-IT project team met for two days at TU Darmstadt, Germany, to review what’s been accomplished so far and plan the next steps for the project. With the project now almost halfway through its four-year timeline, it was the perfect moment to reflect on progress and explore ways to keep pushing the project forward.
In July, we had the pleasure of hosting Amel Barich in our PUSH-IT webinars series on Societal Engagement to talk about the Horizon2020 Crowdthermal Project. Drawing on five sites varying in scale, purpose, and stage of development, the key lessons learned for gaining a Social Licence to Operate (SLO) for geothermal energy were…
Read the latest news, updates and stories about the developments in the PUSH-IT project on underground thermal energy storage.
As part of PUSH IT’s Work Package Task 3.3, focused on microbiology, BRGM has conducted several sampling missions over the past two months.
In this edition of Meet the Scientist we interview Annick Loschetter, research engineer at BRGM (French Geological Survey). Annick focusses on researching water quality within the PUSH-IT project.
PUSH-IT representatives attended the IEA Geothermal 2024 Mine Water Geothermal Energy Symposium, which brought together international participants to share case studies of mine water heating projects as well as developments in mine thermal energy storage (MTES).
Between April 15th and 17th 2024, new developments took place at the ATES site in Berlin Adlershof. Our team tackled some operational challenges within the research well and performed a workover. This intervention was necessary due to a previous issue related to a faulty cementing process during the installation of the well in 2022.
EGU Vienna, the general assembly of the European Geosciences Union, welcomed 20,000 attendees – including many PUSH-IT members.
They contributed to multiple of the hundreds of sessions. See the overview in this post to learn more about our conference contributions!
