PEP - Delegated Project Owner

We will achieve together

Contribute to the development of geothermal projects by supporting field operations, technical monitoring and analysis of geoscientific data, as well as the production of deliverables within the Geothermal unit.

The Geothermal unit, attached to the Thermal and Geothermal Solutions (STG) activity, develops low, medium and deep geothermal projects to meet heating, cooling and energy storage needs. In a rapidly developing field, it participates in subsurface mapping and contributes, in collaboration with the Canton, to creating a favourable framework for the development of geothermal sectors.
