Geothermal at GeoEnergy 2025, Bergen, Norway

A special episode recorded in Bergen, Norway

Did you know the heat beneath our feet could power communities almost anywhere in the world?

In this episode, I take you with me to GeoEnergy 2025, a conference dedicated entirely to geothermal energy — from shallow systems to deep wells and next-generation closed-loop designs.

I share my own journey into geothermal, what I learned at the conference, and short conversations with people working across the field. If you’re curious about geothermal or work in oil & gas and wonder how your subsurface skills can transfer: this one’s for you.

🔊 Voices from the Episode

Featuring short interviews and insights from:

What You’ll Learn

• What geothermal energy actually is (in simple language)
• Why Norway has huge potential — and big drilling challenges
• New closed-loop systems (“underground thermos bottles”)
• How oil & gas skills translate directly into geothermal
• Why visibility, communication, and scale matter
• How digital twins can accelerate deployment

💛 Thank You

Huge thanks to GEAN, and especially Bjarte Lønøy and Kirsti Midttømme, for welcoming me into the geothermal community at GeoEnergy 2025.
