Free event at HLMD highlights opportunities of the energy transition
The Natural Science Association Darmstadt eV invites you to a lecture on geothermal energy at the Hessian State Museum Darmstadt on Wednesday, April 15, 2026.
The event starts at 6:00 PM, doors open at 5:30 PM. Admission is free.

Geothermal energy as a key technology for the energy transition
The presentation focuses on the use of geothermal energy as a renewable energy source. This refers to thermal energy from the Earth's crust, which can be harnessed for technical purposes and is considered an important component of the energy transition.
The technology offers the potential to significantly increase the share of renewable energies in energy consumption.

Insights into fundamentals and regional potential
The speaker is Ulrich Burbaum from Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences. He will explain the physical principles of geothermal energy and various applications.
A special focus is placed on the geological conditions in the Rhine-Main area and the resulting opportunities for a sustainable energy supply in the region.
