Calgary Climate Week brings together communities, innovators, investors, and policymakers to celebrate and accelerate climate solutions. From climate tech tours to a local food showcase and net-zero rodeo, Calgary Climate Week transforms our city into a living laboratory for climate innovation and practical solutions.

Climate Symposium - A marquee gathering of global and local thought leaders
Show & Tell Tours - Guided visits to hydrogen infrastructure, carbon capture facilities, district heating, and more.
Net Zero Rodeo - A family-friendly western showcase powered by renewable energy.

The international research group IGCP 636, under the UNESCO International Geoscience Programme, will hold its annual meeting at INRS in Québec City during a 4-day geothermal workshop from June 2 to 5, 2026.

Join Clean Air Task Force for the 2nd Superhot Rock Summit, a high-level international gathering focused on advancing the future of superhot rock geothermal energy.

This exclusive, invitation-only gathering is designed for leaders driving the frontier of geothermal innovation. If you are interested in participating or would like to be considered for an invitation, please contact events@catf.us. 

This event aims to create a platform for Indigenous voices to be heard, fostering a global dialogue on the potential and challenges of geothermal energy development in Indigenous territories.

The symposium immediately precedes the 2026 World Geothermal Congress (WGC) hosted by the International Geothermal Association (IGA). All symposium participants are welcome to attend the 2026 WGC in Calgary, Canada. 

Just ahead of the World Geothermal Congress 2026, join us for this workshop organised by IEA Geothermal, led by Sarah Robinson (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, DESNZ), with support from the British Geological Survey (BGS).

📅 7 June 2026,  9:00-12:30
📍 Calgary TELUS Convention Centre, Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Sarah Robinson and Brian Carey (IEA Geothermal) warmly invite you to join us in this dynamic 3-hour workshop exploring the wider system benefits of geothermal energy. We’ll move beyond cost and carbon savings to examine broader implications such as socio-economic impacts, energy security, infrastructure integration, and flexibility.

The workshop will be free of charge to attend but you will need to register to secure a place.

IEA Geothermal and GEOTHERMICA Initiative are pleased to bring you a symposium exploring geothermal / underground thermal energy storage (UTES), just ahead of the World Geothermal Congress 2026.

📅 7 June 2026, 12:30-18:00
📍 Calgary TELUS Convention Centre, Calgary, Alberta, Canada
✅ Free to attend (registration required)

Ester Halldórsdóttir (GEOTHERMICA Initiative), Stephan Bolay (GEOTEST AG), Paul Ramsak (Netherlands Enterprise Agency), and Brian Carey (IEA Geothermal) warmly invite you to take part in this international event focused on the role of underground thermal energy storage in the energy transition.

This workshop is open to all stakeholders in the geothermal field and will dive into the focus areas of the Geothermal Gas Management Task.  It is organised by Alma Stefánsdóttir and Jónas Ketilsson (Landsvirkjun) and Brian Carey (IEA Geothermal) with support from Dave Ryan and Andrew Wigston (Natural Resources Canada (NRCan)), and the WGC 2026 organising committee.

📅 7 June 2026, 12:30-18:00
📍 Calgary TELUS Convention Centre, Calgary, Alberta, Canada

The event is sponsored by Landsvirkjun and IEA Geothermal and is FREE to attend – but registration is required!

As part of the EU-funded project GeoS-TECHIS, Fraunhofer IAO and the IAT University of Stuttgart, are conducting a survey on the acceptance and perception of geothermal energy in industry.
The goal of the survey is to better understand the views, needs, and expectations of key stakeholders and to use these insights to develop policy recommendations, communication strategies, and educational materials that support the transition towards climate-neutral industrial energy systems.
The online survey is anonymous; takes about 15 minutes to complete.
Stakeholder Perceptions and Opinions about Geothermal Energy
The results will be published on our website GeoS-TECHIS Fraunhofer.
