INTERNATIONAL PLATFORM FOR ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING

 
Good Practice in Environmental Monitoring - Virtual Meeting
9th -10th February, 2021
20:00-22:30 GMT
 
 

The EU project SECURe is focussed on subsurface evaluation of risks in geoenergy projects.  The SECURe team completed two fact-finding missions, to north America and to Australia, to establish an understanding of current good practice in site performance and environmental monitoring from a practical and operational perspective.  

Building on these missions, we would now like to bring together practitioners, regulators and researchers from around the globe for the launch of the SECURe project’s long term legacy initiative for collaboration, the International Platform for Environmental Monitoring (IPEM). The IPEM will facilitate knowledge and data exchange to foster good practice in environmental monitoring across low carbon subsurface energy (geoenergy) technologies.  

The theme of this virtual two-session event was Good Practice in Environmental Monitoring, and focused on innovative monitoring and practical experience of effective community engagement.
