In 2021 the Massachusetts Legislature directed the appropriation of funds towards studying the first geothermal networks and building a pipeline of projects. The funds were awarded to HEET in 2022, launching HEET’s Learning from the Ground Up Research Consortium.
Day One: Massachusetts Geothermal: Learning from the Ground Up
Hosted by HEET and Mass Clean Energy Center
Date: Nov. 4th, 2026
Time: 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM
Location: Massachusetts State House
24 Beacon St, Boston, MA 02133
Event Description: Join us at the State House as the LeGUp Research Consortium summarizes (for all audiences!) the state of knowledge on networked geothermal, and presents a new data-based geothermal potential study for our Commonwealth. We’ll then share updates from the growing research and project ecosystem and Mass Clean Energy Center will showcase our growing industry ecosystem.
Day Two: Deep Dive into Learnings from LeGUpSOLD OUT. JOIN THE WAITLIST BELOW.
Hosted by HEET
Date: Nov. 5th, 2026
Time: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM
Location: Museum of Science
1 Science Park Boston, MA 02114
Event Description: HEET’s LeGUp research consortium is continuing to build the knowledge base for geothermal or thermal utilities. Talks will cover a wide range of technical, social, and economic aspects of Geothermal Networks, informed by in the field learnings from the utility pilot projects in MA. Together we will strive to translate these key learnings into a science-based scaling strategy statewide, and beyond.
