Around 30 participants met in person to discuss the future of geothermal energy in the Canary Islands and to share experiences amongst public authorities, research centres, companies and other stakeholders linked to the sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">One of the topics that was most relevant to our work was the relationship between geothermal energy, energy and water. During the conference, we learnt about various possibilities for the Canary Islands, ranging from shallow geothermal systems to deep geothermal projects, and gained an insight into initiatives already underway both on the islands and in other parts of Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">There was also time to head out into the field and gain a slightly better understanding of the volcanic context in which these solutions are being proposed. The visit to Teide National Park allowed us to round off those two days by seeing first-hand the relationship between Tenerife\u2019s geological features and its geothermal potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">We returned from Tenerife with a slightly better understanding of a field we are still only just beginning to explore and, above all, with a much clearer idea of what is already being done with geothermal energy in the Canary Islands and the potential it may hold for our islands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More information<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/greetgeo.eu\/greet-geo-canarian-networking-event-and-study-visit-brings-together-key-geothermal-stakeholders-in-tenerife\/?utm_source=chatgpt.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-primary-color\">GREET GEO \u2013 Canarian Networking Event and Study Visit<\/mark><\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Un encuentro para conocer de cerca c\u00f3mo se est\u00e1 trabajando con la geotermia en Canarias y otros territorios europeos.
