Clean Air Task Force

A clear message emerged from discussions - geothermal energy should no longer be treated as a niche technology. The forthcoming EU Geothermal Action Plan is an opportunity to spell out what this energy source can deliver amidst geopolitical uncertainty. catf.us/europe/cee/

There was a strong focus on the next steps needed to advance geothermal in the region: ▪️Clearer 2030 geothermal targets ▪️Stronger integration into national and local planning ▪️Increased public investment ▪️A bankable pipeline of strategic projects.

This week in Dubrovnik, CATF convened a high-level roundtable on unlocking geothermal potential in the Three Seas region at @3seaseu. For CEE, geothermal can be a strategic infrastructure asset, providing reliable power to industries, heating homes, & ensuring high-quality jobs.

Amid uncertainty, fossil fuel shortages, and price spikes, how can CEE become less reliant on short turn state support and imported fossil fuels? CATF experts explore how deploying clean energy in CEE can increase competitiveness and energy security: catf.us/2026/04/clean-…

Clean Air Task Force is consistently ranked as the most effective climate organization in the world. This #EarthMonth, there's still time to support solutions the world needs for a zero-emissions, high-energy future: give.catf.us/campaign/78228…

These projects utilize a range of technologies from carbon capture to electrification to on-site renewables to fugitive emission abatement, demonstrating the wide range of tools at our disposal to clean one of the most impactful and economically important sectors.

Bipartisan superhot rock #geothermal legislation introduced in U.S. Senate today will be key to accelerating next-generation geothermal, strengthening U.S. energy leadership, and unlocking this clean, reliable, and abundant energy option. catf.us/2026/04/bipart…

In a new op-ed for @CarbonHerald, CATF’s Stephanie Herbstritt and Penn State’s Tom Richard examine how biomass carbon removal can become a credible, scalable climate solution. carbonherald.com/biomass-carbon…

Plants already remove vast amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. The challenge is ensuring more of that carbon stays out of it.

Three Seas Initiative (3SI) countries hold 66 GW of cost-competitive geothermal potential -- enough to reshape the region's energy security. New op-ed by Ember's Tatiana Mindeková with @cleanaircatf via @ceenergynews ceenergynews.com/voices/central…

This week, join Clean Air Task Force and @AcadiaCtr for a webinar on how leveraging public financing tools can help mitigate these issues by lowering costs, improving project certainty, and speeding project development. Register: catf.us/events/public-…

U.S. states are working to scale clean energy resources & grid infrastructure, but nearly 70% of transmission lines are 25+ years old & demand on the grid is growing. This leads to greater grid system costs & transmission constraints – contributing to higher energy costs.

Dubrovnik represents a critical opportunity for regional stakeholders to build momentum for geothermal energy across the Three Seas countries, driving concrete national commitments and investments that the region needs. Read more in CEE Energy News: ceenergynews.com/voices/central…

3️⃣ Regional platforms like the Three Seas Initiative should move beyond political alignment to enable practical cooperation. High-level commitments are key, but the success of next-gen geothermal will depend on how countries share data, regulatory experiences, & lessons learned.

Central and Eastern Europe’s next energy alliance is taking shape, and it runs on geothermal. Ahead of this year’s @3seaseu in Croatia, find out why countries between the Baltic, Adriatic, and Black Seas are turning their attention towards geothermal 👇 ceenergynews.com/voices/central…
