Our social media accounts are an excellent way to interact in a clear and user-friendly manner with anyone interested in geothermal.
We are looking to communicate information beyond the usual web experience.
We invite you to view the below for more detailed information on how to interact with the European Geothermal Congress 2025 on social media.
The Social Media team manages the following accounts on behalf of EGEC:
EGEC posts follow the standards, practices and tone pre-established by social media users who are interested in access to information and related issues. We make an effort to ensure that our posts are inviting, instructive and sometimes entertaining.
Information Concerning
Where appropriate, EGEC accounts may post comments containing links to websites not operated by the EGEC Social Media Team. These links are provided solely for the convenience and interest of users. As is customary, EGEC is not responsible for the accuracy, timeliness or reliability of the content on these sites. EGEC offers no guarantees in this regard, and is not responsible for information contained on these links, nor does it endorse the sites and their content.
The retransmission of a tweet (X) or use of the “share” function (LinkedIn) does not mean that EGEC endorses the information. We may relay news, links and personal observations that we consider relevant to EGEC social media participants.
The fact that EGEC decides to follow a user does not mean that it supports that user, or their views. EGEC follows accounts that EGEC considers relevant to the field and that provide useful information that could be shared with EGEC followers.
Similarly, EGEC does not support all users who follow one of the EGEC accounts. EGEC will take steps to remove or block a follower if it is clear that the follower is a “robot” or is not respecting social media etiquette.

Any emerging themes and helpful suggestions will be passed to the appropriate person at EGEC (Secretary-General). While EGEC will not be able to respond individually to every message, messages will be treated on a case-by-case basis, and EGEC will reply to them when considered appropriate.
If EGEC think that a comment or a question requires a response or further clarification, EGEC may make an official response and disseminate the information through its other channels, such as EGEC website or other social media platforms.
Social Media users may use the “like” function on the EGEC accounts. In doing so, they allow EGEC posts and updates to appear on their news feed. You must have a valid social media account to “like” the EGEC accounts.
