Geothermal Ukraine - an Empowering Change for Good: Making difference in technology for rapid deployment
Research AreaGeothermal Energy
Project ReferenceGrant agreement ID: 10093102
CoordinatorProfessor Gennady S. Mishuris
Project FundingThe UK and Ukraine have launched the InnovateUkraine programme supporting green energy innovation projects in Ukraine with a £16m investment from the UK Government.
Duration1 April 2024 - 31 March 2026
Project Description

Ukrgasvydobuvannya and Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv are supported by Aberystwyth University and Rockfield from the UK in their pursuit of a more analytical and targeted approach to harnessing Ukraine’s geothermal energy potential, especially in the west of Ukraine. The project develops a new and innovative analytical approach to the identification of productive geothermal resources, significantly reducing the time and cost associated with drilling unproductive wells. This approach could allow effective utilisation of geothermal resources previously considered only marginal. The project team hopes to be in a position to use this new approach to build its first geothermal production facility in Ukraine by 2028.
