Abstracts are now being accepted for the 2024 European Geothermal PhD Days taking place at TU Delft, Netherlands on 3-5 April, 2024.

PhD and early-career researchers are being invited to submit abstracts for the 15th European Geothermal PhD Days taking place on 3-5 April, 2024 at the Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands.

Abstracts will be accepted until 31 January 2024. Guidelines and instructions on abstract submission are available via this link.

The European Geothermal PhD Days (EGPD) is a training program organised by PhD candidates of different universities every year. The first European Geothermal PhD-day (EGPD2010) was held at the Helmholtz Centre Potsdam GFZ – German Research Centre for Geosciences – on February 12, 2010, as an initiative of the European Energy Research Alliance (EERA) joint program in geothermal energy. In total, participants working in 20 different European countries, and various scientific disciplines, have attended this PhD-training program.

Last year’s EGPD was held for the first time in the UK, organized by students from the University of Glasgow, University of Strathclyde, and University of Edinburgh.

EGPD is a way to efficiently spread scientific knowledge related to geothermal energy by making an event that attracts young specialists. It emulates youth in geosciences and provides a framework to make connections in a qualitative way. It provides a dedicated and informal occasion for the PhD candidates to exchange with their peers and to develop their network.
