Article Reference Governance of shallow geothermal energy resources
Successful electrification of cities' heating and cooling demands depends on the sustainable implementation of highly efficient ground source heat pumps (GSHP). During the last decade, the use of shallow geothermal energy (SGE) resources in urban areas has experienced an unprecedented boost which nowadays is still showing a steady 9% market growth trend. However, the intensive market incorporation experienced by this technology entails different responsibilities towards the long-term technical and environmental sustainability in order to maintain this positive trend. Here we present a SGE management framework structure and a governance model agreed among 13 European Geological Surveys, providing a roadmap for the different levels of management development, adaptable to any urban scale, and independent of the hydrogeological conditions and the grade of development of SGE technology implementation. The management approach reported is based on the adaptive management concept, thus offering a working flow for the non-linear relationship between planning, implementation and control that establishes a cyclical and iterative management process. The generalized structure of the SGE management framework provided allows the effective analysis of policy to identify and plan for management problems and to select the best management objectives, strategies and measures according to the policy principles proposed here.

Article Reference EuroGeoSurveys: from a non-profit association to ageological service for Europe
EuroGeoSurveys (EGS) is a not-for-profit organization representing 37 national geological surveysand some regional surveys; it has an overall workforce of several thousand experts. EGS members provide offi-cial, interoperable, homogeneous, reliable, INSPIRE (infrastructure for spatial information in the EuropeanCommunity)-compliant public data on the subsurface for the benefit of society in terms of circular economydevelopment, sustainable management of the subsurface resources, understanding and combatting climatechange and the development of infrastructures and mitigation of geology-related natural hazards. The EGSis committed to establishing a geological service for Europe based on three pillars: (1) joint research withimpact on EU policy level, which is being implemented through the GeoERA programme (Establishing theEuropean Geological Surveys Research Area to deliver a Geological Service for Europe); (2) harmonizingand sharing pan-European geological data, through the European Geological Data Infrastructure (EGDI);and (3) sharing knowledge, capacities and infrastructure, through the pan-African support to the EGS-Organi-zation of African Geological Surveys (OAGS) Partnership (PanAfGeo project). The EGS will continue to sup-port the EU in its transition to a low-carbon, climate-neutral, resource-efficient, socially and environmentallyresilient economy, in full compliance with the United Nations 2030 Agenda and the 17 Sustainable Develop-ment Goals.
