Main Theme
“A New Era in Geothermal Investment”
Strategic Framework
This is not just an industry conference; it is where a future is being shaped.
Geothermal is no longer just a matter of power generation. Geothermal sits at the intersection of energy security, investment, agriculture, industry, health, tourism, and regional development.
Türkiye is not merely a country rich in geothermal resources; it is one of the rare nations with the potential to become a global hub for investment, deployment, and ideas in geothermal.
