GeoPower Europe

Dear Members, Associates and Friends,

I would like to invite you to join us at the fourth annual GeoPowerEurope Conference and Exhibition in Budapest, Hungary.After almost a decade of small-capacity development in thegeothermal electricity market, we are experiencing resurgence.Numerous European project launches mean that geothermalenergy is firmly on course to become a substantial part of theEuropean energy mix. Developments in district heating are also ofincreasing interest.However, it must be noted that progress in recent years has notbeen uniform, with significant geographic variation. Thesevariations can be attributed to two groups of factors: non-technical issues and resource side factors.These topics and many more will be discussed and debated indetail at GeoPower Europe with particular focus on DistrictHeating, Combined Heat & Power, and insights into the EasternEuropean market.

We look forward to meeting you at GeoPower Europe 2012 as wework together to drive geothermal energy from a fledgling marketto an established industry.

Yours sincerely,
