Geothermal x Heat Networks

Show or no show?

Fortune favours the brave! It was the hottest day of the year so far, with travel not recommended, chaos on the trains, dangerous heat levels, etc. 🥵

We had a strong turnout despite the obvious challenges, and the overall session and roundtables were very animated [must have been the AC!].

The commitment and passion in the room were evident!

What have people been saying? 🗣️

A couple of LinkedIn posts you can catch-up with, to get a flavour of the event and people's support:


The injury

I'm very pleased it was so well received and a productive session - it was my first panel moderation, so good to get that under my belt for future events.

Also having convened the whole event, I had some skin [and bone] in the game....

Having hobbled up there from Southampton with a swollen ankle [suspected ligament damage], an X-ray a few days later revealed a fracture and bone chip. 😭

Badge of Honour in the post. 🎖️ 🤣


Event rewind

There was real energy and passion in the room, reinforcing the belief of genuine opportunity to scale both sectors together through to 2050.

The event may be over for now, but the work lives on. The key event phases:

🗣️ Roundtable breakouts

Our event intelligence partners, Lorefully, are crunching the data; we captured recordings of thousands and thousands of words spoken across both event phases.

That now gets analysed and refined - we will deliver the report that gives reflections on the session's themes, key insights, and takeaways.

What about Kevin?

Here he is, popping up at another one of my events - my best supporter!

Some questions I asked in the introduction and of the panellists:

  • If you build a heat network, can you secure the connections?
  • If you commit to geothermal well drilling, is the anchor load onboard?
  • If you invest and build in the supply chain, will the projects arrive?

More on the responses from the panellists in the report.

See, Kevin always has a role to play!


Thanks for your time, interest, and support as always.

Let's keep pushing forward - remember, the momentum is unstoppable despite everything you might see and hear! 🌍
