Geothermal Heat Pump Days 2024 will take place on 16-18 October in Dublin, Ireland. Building on the legacy of Shallow Geothermal Days, this conference is evolving from 2019 to emphasise the critical role of geothermal heat pumps, both large and small, in achieving a sustainable and net-zero future. Geothermal heat pumps have emerged as a cutting-edge solution that provides clean, quiet heating and cooling while significantly reducing utility bills by up to 70%. This technology goes beyond traditional ground source heat pumps, offering versatile applications such as free cooling and seasonal underground heat storage. In the crucial decade leading up to 2030, Geothermal Heat Pump Days 2024 will bring together policy makers, scientists and industry experts to address the upcoming climate and energy challenges. Participants will gain valuable insights into the latest advances, innovations and best practices shaping the future of geothermal heat pumps. This event promises to promote a deeper understanding of the opportunities and challenges in the geothermal heat pump sector, facilitating the transition to a sustainable, decarbonised energy future. Key Highlights 16 October - Site Visit: On Wednesday afternoon, get an up-close look at innovative geothermal heat pump installations. 17 October - Full Day Conference & Networking Dinner: On Thursday, connect with leading experts and policymakers and learn about the latest industry trends and technological advances. In the evening, network with colleagues in a relaxed, informal setting during the dinner. 18 October - Morning Conference: On Friday morning, wrap up the event with insightful sessions and discussions followed by a networking lunch. Don't miss the opportunity to be part of the premier event in the geothermal energy sector. Stay tuned for more details and registration information coming soon!
