The project GeoEn is coordinated within section 6.1 basin modelling. It is sponsored in the framework of "The BMBF Innovation Initiative for the New German Länder" as a joint project between University of Potsdam, Brandenburg University of Technology and Helmholtz Centre Potsdam German Research Centre for Geosciences GFZ.
The joint research project Geoenergy - GeoEn - concentrates on the examination of four relevant core themes which engage in the climate friendly and sustainable energy supply in the future: CO2 capture and transport, CO2 storage, shale gas (unconventional geo-resource) and geothermal energy.
The core themes are worked on in the cross-cutting fields of geoenergy research, including the process modelling.
Section 6.1 in cooperation with the University Potsdam work on the following issues in the framework of GeoEn:
- Methodical development of regional numerical modelling of the coupled fluid flow and heat transport in North Germany: UP/GFZ: M. Scheck-Wenderoth
