Ground2Grid Summit will connect the complete lifecycle of geothermal and carbon-neutral heating and cooling systems - from subsurface exploration to final system integration.
Taylor’s work at Slippery Rock may be taking place in a small university lab, but it reflects a broader trend: the critical role of student researchers in advancing the technologies and practices that will shape the future of energy.
Global efforts to transition toward renewable energy are accelerating, and long-term forecasts suggest oil demand could plateau or decline beyond the 2030s.
This year’s conference will explore a range of timely and complex topics, including deep-sea desalination, the application of artificial intelligence in water systems, and the future of the Colorado River.
With investment rising, technologies improving, and governments signaling stronger support, desalination and water reuse are set to become cornerstones of the global water supply, not just emergency solutions.
