UK Geoenergy Observatories are facilitating a step change in our understanding of geology and our relationship with the underground environment.
Active and previous research projects.
BGS is committed to research aimed at slowing down the effects of a changing climate, whilst helping society to become resilient to climate change.
The UK Geoenergy Observatories team took part in Evidence Week 2020 to talk to parliamentarians about the essential role of geoenergy in the energy mix to meet net zero.
A new, seamless, onshore–offshore digital geological map for part of one of the most famous coastlines in the world — the Jurassic Coast in Dorset, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Geothermal energy is all energy stored in the form of heat beneath the surface of the solid earth. It is a reliable and constant source of low-carbon, renewable heat that is not dependent on weather conditions.
The BGS was commissioned by the Public Health England to undertake sampling of properties in Cornwall served by private water supplies to assess exposure to arsenic.
This cluster does research to identify, measure and quantify complex geological and environmental processes essential in the efficient utilisation of natural resources and underground spaces.
