2nd EASYGO Training Week

This EASYGO Training Week took place in Aachen from 21st April until 26th April 2022. The second training week was designed with a focus on Computational Geosciences, Inversion methods, Open-Source concepts, as well as hydraulic stimulation and CO2 geothermal techniques. Apart from scientific and soft skills training, this week also provided an opportunity to all the ESRs to present the current state otheir research in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. The training was complemented with a fieldtrip around Aachen, which manifests several thermal springs around the city and hosts the geothermal well- RWTH-1. An important component of this training week was also that it was directly followed by the European Geothermal PhD days (EGPD), a gathering of 60 PhD students from all over Europe working in the field of geothermal energy. This year EGPD was organized by EASYGO students and hosted by RWTH Aachen University. For more news, please see the Outreach section.
