This grant funds research on deep sedimentary and basement geothermal reservoirs between 2000-6000m depth, focusing on advanced technologies and models to predict reservoir properties and improve exploitation. Projects should address environmental and social impacts, enhance drilling success, and engage local communities. The goal is to enable sustainable geothermal energy use by overcoming challenges like low permeability and high drilling costs, integrating technical and societal expertise.
Eligible applicants must comply with Horizon Europe general conditions including proposal format, eligible countries, financial and operational capacity, and use of specific satellite data if applicable.
