GENIUS – the Doctoral Network on Energy Geostructures Integration

Welcome to GENIUS – the Doctoral Network on Energy Geostructures Integration: Buildings, Infrastructure and Underground Storage.

Funded by the European Union as a part of the Horizon Europe Programme, Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions Doctoral Networks 2024, GENIUS will train fifteen Doctoral Candidates as the next generation of researchers to become pioneers in integrating energy geostructures within urban systems—contributing directly to Europe’s climate-neutral future.

Coordinated by Dr. Melis Sutman (University of Edinburgh), GENIUS brings together a great team of academic beneficiaries: Prof. Hussein Mroueh (Université de Lille), Prof. Rao Martand Singh (Norwegian University of Science and Technology), Prof. Diana Salciarini (L’Università degli Studi di Perugia), Prof. Marco Barla (Politecnico di Torino), Dr. Alice Di Donna (Université Grenoble Alpes), and Prof. Christopher Sansom (University of Derby). Together with valued associate partners, GENIUS will bridge the knowledge gap in shallow geothermal energy technologies, to unlock the full potential of energy geostructures for heating, cooling, and storage.
