Seismology for the Energy Transition
As the energy transition accelerates toward low- and zero-carbon sources, technologies such as geothermal and hydrogen energy, alongside geologic carbon storage, will be essential to achieving the net-zero emissions goal by 2050. The success of this transformation relies on advanced seismic and non-seismic technologies to optimize the exploration and development of geothermal and hydrogen energy, as well as to ensure safe, long-term geologic carbon storage.
This session invites cutting-edge research on site and reservoir characterization and monitoring, utilizing techniques such as passive and active seismic methods, distributed acoustic sensing (DAS), ambient noise analysis, induced seismicity, advanced sensors, other emerging approaches, and non-seismic techniques. We encourage contributions that explore applications of these techniques in geothermal energy (including hydrothermal, enhanced geothermal systems and superhot geothermal), hydrogen energy development, hydrogen and geothermal storage, and geologic carbon storage. We welcome abstracts on laboratory experiments, numerical modeling, AI and machine learning innovations, and field-scale studies.
