Project description
Risk insurance in Europe against geological risk
Geothermal project development entails several risks, including geological risks such as not finding an economically sustainable geothermal resource after drilling. This threatens the bankability of a geothermal project. Although geological risk is a common issue all over Europe, risk insurance funds exist only in Denmark, France, Germany, Iceland, The Netherlands and Switzerland, limiting the capacity of project developers to manage financial risks. The EU funded GEORISK project will establish risk insurance all over Europe and in some key target third countries to cover the exploration phase and the first drilling (test).
