On February 27 and 28, 2025, the University of Bucharest invites you to participate in a series of thematic workshops, training sessions and scientific presentations on topics in the field of energy transition, concepts and strategies based on geophysical technologies for smart cities.
The events, organized within the GeoAlliance project, will take place at the University House of Bucharest (40 Dionisie Lupu Street).
The “Driving Sustainable Urban Futures: A Romanian-Norwegian Innovation Geophysical Alliance for Green Transition and SMART City Development” (GeoAlliance) project is a bilateral Romanian-Norwegian initiative which focuses on research activities and information dissemination on topics such as:
- Geophysics for energy transition, emphasizing advanced geophysical data processing and the use of synthetic modelling to reduce risks in geothermal drilling and ensure a comprehensive evaluation of geothermal potential;
- Concepts and strategies for using geophysical data in SMART city development, with an emphasis on leveraging local resources to achieve a diversified energy mix with a reduced climate footprint and improving urban management in response to natural or anthropogenic hazards, identifiable through geophysical measurement and monitoring systems.
The working sessions and presentations are grouped under the following topics: 1. Green Energy Frontiers (27 February 2025), and 2. Geophysical and Geological Data for Smart City Solutions: Building Safer, More Resilient Communities & Infrastructure (28 February 2025).
The events aim to strengthen cooperation between experts from donor states (Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway) and experts from beneficiary countries of EEA and Norwegian grants, as well as the efficient exchange of know-how in the field, addressing both experts in the field, public authorities and the general public with interests in the aforementioned fields.
The opening of the events will benefit from the presence of representatives from the project partners, Dr. Adrian Bazavan, Advisor to the Minister of Energy, and Dr. Eng. Răzvan Greculeasa, representative of the Mineral Resources Directorate, Ministry of Economy, Digitalization, Entrepreneurship and Tourism.
The complete program of the events is available here (for 27 February 2025), and here (for 28 February 2025).
Participation in events is based on pre-registration using the contact form available here.
The project “Driving Sustainable Urban Futures: A Romanian-Norwegian Innovation Geophysical Alliance for Green Transition and SMART City Development” is co-financed by a grant from Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway through the EEA Grants Romania 2014-2021, in the frame of the SME Growth Programme Romania. Grant number: 2024/395080. The project is a collaborative initiative between the University of Bucharest’s Faculty of Geology and Geophysics and Pre Stack Solutions – Geo AS (PSS-GEO AS) (www.pss-geo.com).
