Geothermal Forum NL 2026
Connecting the Future of Geothermal Energy
Born from the rich legacy of the Delft Aardwarmte Project (DAP) Symposium, the Geothermal Forum NL (GFNL) has evolved. To keep pace with the rapid energy transition, we have transformed our biennial gathering into a dynamic annual event. Our mission is clear: to champion geothermal energy as a vital field of study and to serve as the premier hub connecting the national and international geothermal industry.
We operate with a small team of students who have affinity with Geothermal Energy and are keen on orginizing various events. We are building on the knowledge gathered over the past 15 years on the geothermal energy industry in the Netherlands through our board of overseers and the seven prior DAP Symposium editions. This allows us to operate professionally while brining in creative new ideas coming from the minds of excited students.
