Media event about the start of the VALTER project stimulations

Media event about the start of the VALTER project stimulations

On 28 September, we invited the press to the BedrettoLab, because the stimulations within the VALTER project are about to start.

The Validating of Technologies for Reservoir Engineering (VALTER) experiment, funded by the Swiss Federal Office of Energy, tests in unprecedented detail on a realistic scale of several hundred metres innovative technologies and processes to create a commercially viable underground heat exchanger while minimising the risk of major earthquakes.

The media reports from this (and earlier events) are listed here.
