Held once every five years, the World Geothermal Congress gives the geothermal energy industry an opportunity to check on progress and envision the future for the industry.
The event is co-hosted by the International Geothermal Association, with 5,000 members representing 33 national and international geothermal associations and members in 67 countries. The Geothermal Resources Council provides around 20% of the membership.
Five days of technical sessions will include papers on scientific, technical, business and societal topics. The Congress will also provide many networking opportunities through special interest group meetings, social and cultural events, field trips and short courses in Australia and New Zealand.
