To increase international outreach, the Geo-Energy Europe (GEE) meta-cluster has created partnerships with structuring clusters in target markets, notably in Canada, Chile, and Kenya. Partners of the project are offering Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SME’s) the opportunity to attend training sessions dedicated to those market countries. Each training session will be followed by a market visit organized in the country.
Canadian Training session takes place on Tuesday May 10, 2022 at 2:00pm – 3:30pm (CET)
Canadian geothermal market: global structure of the energy market, geothermal market (regulation, support schemes and risk mitigation schemes if existing, market barriers…)
Collaborative tool developed by GEE’s partner (CAPES)
Coaching of our SMEs: key aspects when working with Canadian geothermal companies, identification of specific know-how developed by GEE’s SMEs to fit the market…

Preparation of the market visit
The Canadian market visit will take place on Monday, June 13, 2022 at 14:00 in Toronto.
GEOSCIENCE IRELAND, will co-host a short Seminar with Enterprise Ireland, during PDAC, in Toronto on the 13th of June at 14.00. This seminar is for participants interested in the Canadian Geothermal Sector, with insights into the overall objectives of the GEE2 project. The event will feature presentations by EU companies seeking partnerships with Canadian counterparts to develop geothermal energy.
The objectives of the GEE2 project:
Presentation of tailored strengths of the member companies to target the Canadian market.
Enhancement of business development and capacity building activities through engagement.
Supporting transition to the green economy, utilizing existing skillsets in subsurface geoscience.
Developing new sustainable services, drawing knowledge from more traditional subsurface activities.
Supporting the expansion of employment in niche scientific and engineering related disciplines.
Sustainable application of subsurface knowledge, supporting the harnessing of geothermal energy
The GEO-ENERGY EUROPE project started in January of 2018 for a duration of 2 years and involves 8 partners from 7 EU and COSME participating countries: POLE AVENIA (coordinator) and GEODEEP in France, EGEC in Belgium, Geoplat in Spain, GeoEnergy Celle in Germany, CAPES in Hungary, Geoscience Ireland, and JESDER in Turkey.
