Exploring the Feasibility of Deep Geothermal Energy in the Humber Region

As the UK seeks to accelerate the transition to low-carbon energy, deep geothermal has the potential to play a significant role in delivering secure, sustainable heat and energy. Yet despite its promise, relatively few geothermal projects have progressed beyond the feasibility stage.

The Humber Geothermal Energy Workshop: From Model to Market brings together experts from industry, academia and the public sector to explore the opportunities and challenges associated with developing deep geothermal energy in the Humber region.

This interactive one-day workshop will examine the technical, commercial and societal factors that influence geothermal development, drawing on expertise from the University of Hull, Consortium Drilling Limited and Eden Geothermal Limited. Through a series of focused discussions and regional case studies, participants will explore how collaboration, innovation and investment can help unlock the region's geothermal potential.

Designed to encourage open dialogue and knowledge exchange, the workshop programme will be shaped by responses to a pre-event questionnaire, ensuring discussions focus on the issues considered most important by attendees.

Key topics

  • Understanding the UK's deep geothermal landscape
  • Resource uncertainty and development risk
  • Geothermal infrastructure and heat demand
  • Commercial viability, finance and investment
  • Policy, regulation and project delivery
  • Regional collaboration and public engagement
  • Future opportunities for geothermal deployment in the Humber
