About the event

As part of the regular Focus on Geothermal webinar series, a partnership between ThinkGeoEnergy and Enerchange, we are proud to host Dr Albert Genter, Deputy General Manager of ES Geothermie. The webinar “Geothermal energy in Northern Alsace: social acceptability as a success driver?” will tackle the history of geothermal development in Alsace, France, the social issues that were encountered, and how such issues were addressed.

Dr Genter’s team is exploiting two geothermal plants producing electricity (Soultz-sous-Forêts) and heat (Rittershoffen). Graduated with a PhD in Applied Geology from the University of Orléans in 1989 (France), he is currently elected at the board of the French Geothermal Association, and he is a former board of director at IGA (International Geothermal Association) from 2013 to 2020. After starting his career as structural geologist at BRGM, the French Geological Survey, he moved to Soultz as Scientific Manager and finally to industry at ES in Strasbourg.
