The Geothermal Energy & Geofluids group is endowed by the Werner Siemens Foundation and investigates reactive fluid (water, CO₂, CₓHᵧ, N₂) and (geothermal) energy (heat, pressure) transfer in the Earth's crust employing computer simulations, laboratory experiments and field analyses.

Our goal is to gain fundamental insights and to address a wide range of societal goals and concerns such as:

• Water- and CO₂-based geothermal energy and geofluids: Exploration, Extraction, and Conversion (heat, electricity, synthetic fuels)
• Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) operation
• Geologic CO₂ sequestration
• Heat energy extraction during Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)
• Grid-scale, geothermal-reservoir-based energy storage
• Groundwater flow and supply
