Energy Group
At the forefront of energy geoscience...
The Energy Group of the Geological Society promotes geoscience scholarship and professional activities associated with the diversification of energies and waste disposal required by the energy transition. It was formed in 2020 as the successor to the Petroleum Group, which had been a Special Interest Group of the Geological Society since 1981.
The Energy Group will encompass all geoscience aspects of the full cycle of the delivery of energy to society, including applications to:
- Carbon capture, utilisation and storage
- Oil and Gas
- Radioactive waste disposal
- Geological energy storage
- Geothermal energy
- Hydrogen
Fellows and Candidate Fellows of the Geological Society are welcome to join the Energy Group. Please email EnergyGroup@geolsoc.org.uk if you wish to join.
To receive information about Society and Energy Group activities, please indicate this in your email.
If you are not a Fellow of the Society, you are nonetheless welcome to attend Energy Group conferences. However, Geological Society Fellows can usually book at preferential rates, and it may therefore be beneficial to join the Society.
The awards deadline for 2025 has now closed further information will be available in due course for 2026. For more information please visit the Awards Page.
If you would like to propose a conference to the Energy Group Committee, please complete and return the meeting proposal (located in the download section below) form to EnergyGroup@geolsoc.org.uk. Ideally, proposals should be received at least 12 months prior to the proposed meeting date.
The Energy Group is able to offer a discount on conference registration fees for unemployed members. Please contact EnergyGroup@geolsoc.org.uk for further information.
