It is becoming increasingly clear how necessary it is to make rapid and ambitious progress in the area of climate protection. Deep geothermal energy can make an important contribution to electricity generation, but especially to heat supply. The German government has now also recognized this, but there are still challenges - both technical and in terms of licensing law. But these too can be successfully mastered.

The Geothermie.Bayern practical forum will show possible solutions. Experts from science, business, politics and practice will discuss how geothermal projects can be optimally implemented. Numerous electricity and heat projects, many of them in the geothermal hotspot of Bavaria, present what sustainable energy generation looks like. Currently, there are also many new projects in development in Bavaria, which we would like to present at this year's practical forum.

The popular industry event and networking meeting will take place again from 22 to 24 October 2025 at the Bürgerhaus Pullach near Munich. The congress day on 23 October 2025 will be simultaneously translated.

Geothermal Rising is pleased to announce the dates and location for the 2029 Geothermal Rising Conference: Sunday, November 4 - Wednesday, November 7 at the Peppermill Resort in Reno, Nevada.

Nevada can be described as the heart of geothermal in the United States. Featuring more than 25 plants, Nevada's electrical generation capacity from its geothermal plants is second only to California. Save-the-date now to be part of the movement at what is sure to be the largest GRC to-date in the center of the geothermal community!

Did you know that the Peppermill Resort utilizes geothermal energy? Located at the north end of the Moana Hot Springs thermal anomaly, the Peppermill’s pools, hot tubs, domestic water for showers and mechanical systems, generate all of their heating energy from their geothermal operation 24 hours a day seven days a week. In addition to pumping the naturally heated water from the ground, the resort has also installed a reinjection well that returns the geothermal fluids back underground, to be reheated by the heat beneath our feet.

The hotel room block will open, along with registration, in Spring of 2029.

Geothermal Rising is pleased to announce the dates and location for the 2028 Geothermal Rising Conference: Sunday, October 15 - Wednesday, October 18 at the Gaylord Rockies in Aurora, Colorado. 

It is an exciting time for geothermal in Colorado! Colorado is actively developing its geothermal energy resources, with a focus on both electricity generation and direct-use applications like heating and cooling. The state has seen increased investment and exploration, particularly in areas with high heat flow, such as the Rico Dome and the San Luis Valley. Colorado also offers various incentives, including tax credits and grant programs, to support geothermal project development.

Save-the-date to join us at the Gaylord Rockies in 2028! The hotel room block will open, along with registration, in Spring of 2028. 

Family Fun at GRC: Discover Geothermal in Downtown Reno!
Join us for a kid-friendly afternoon of scientific exploration and discovery in the heart of downtown Reno! Hosted alongside the Geothermal Rising Conference, this event is open to both visiting families and the local community — all are welcome to celebrate Reno’s unique role as a leader in geothermal energy.

The adventure begins at The Discovery, where families can enjoy snacks and drinks, explore interactive exhibits, and catch a live science demonstration. 

Explore the museum’s interactive exhibits and get inspired by the world around us and beneath our feet.

Then we’ll head across the street to the Downtown Reno Public Library for a geothermal-themed scavenger hunt — complete with clues, a plaque rubbing station, and prizes for finishers — plus a cozy renewable energy story time for younger attendees.

This event is a fun, engaging way to explore the power of geothermal — and share it with the next generation.

Come explore the potential how geothermal can power our world — and why Reno is at the center of it all — at this free, hands-on event for families and curious minds of all ages. Free shuttle from the Peppermill Resort for GRC attendees!

Agenda:

•   10:30 - 11:00 | Shuttle from Peppermill to The Discovery (GRC attendees only)
•   11:00 - 1:30 | Discovery: exploration, live demos, & pizza party (while supplies last)
•   1:00 - 2:00 | Optional midday shuttle to and from Peppermill available (GRC attendees only)
