The GEORISK project works to establish risk insurance all over Europe and in some key target third countries to cover risks associated with the development and the operation of a deep geothermal plant.

Geothermal project development has several risky components, the most important one being the resource risk. Beyond exploration, the bankability of a geothermal project is threatened by this geological risk.
Risk insurance Funds for the geological risk already exist in some European countries (France, Germany, Iceland, The Netherlands, Denmark and Switzerland). The geological risk is a common issue all over the world. Outside Europe, the Geothermal Development Facility (GDF) for Latin America and the Geothermal Risk Mitigation Facility (GRMF) for Africa offer some risk mitigation tools. With the notable exception of these regions, project developers have very little capability to manage this financial risk.
The establishment of such risk insurance all over the world to cover the exploration phase and the first drilling (test) is key for a large development of deep geothermal. But it appears clear that a risk mitigation scheme must be designed, especially with the involvement of private financers, according to the market maturity of the sector in each country and region
The project, coordinated by EGEC, will be on-going for 30 months from October 1, 2018.
