🌟Inspiring Week at TU Delft, Netherlands
Last week, our amazing project team had the pleasure of visiting TU Delft for an inspiring and productive program.
We started on Tuesday with a knowledge session on Aquathermal Energy, focused on exchanging expertise with citizen initiatives.
This led to valuable questions and reflections, enriching our collective understanding and approach.
Following that, we held our WaterWarmth project meeting, and what progress we’ve made! All partners have taken significant steps toward achieving the goals of our project. Updates were shared, for instance; the pilots are moving forward and are expected to be operational next year! We’re also thrilled about the upcoming quick scan tool, which will enable cooperatives and initiatives to quickly assess whether aquathermal energy is a viable energy source for their projects. This tool is set to launch by early 2025. Out in the field, much is happening - community meetings, feasibility studies, tackling installation challenges, and navigating permit applications.
It was great to reconnect, share feedback, and take meaningful next steps together.
There was, of course, time to explore the beautiful city of Delft and visit The Green Village, a living lab where various experiments with sustainable energy, recycling, and waste reduction are conducted in a real village setting. These include aquathermal energy, but also geothermal energy, solar power, and hydrogen.
The visit was truly inspiring, motivating us to pursue energy independence with sustainability at its core. As the WaterWarmth project, we aim to play an active role in this journey!
We left with ideas and valuable input to continue developing our project.
Follow us to stay updated on the latest in aquathermal energy and its role in the energy transition! 🌍💧
