Subsurface geothermal research by SCAN
By 2050, all homes in the Netherlands must be heated in an environmentally friendly way. One possibility is the use of geothermal heat. In order to determine whether this is possible, research must be done into the suitability of the subsurface, including in this region. That is why SCAN (Seismic Campaign Geothermal Netherlands) is conducting temporary seismic research from the first week of February 2025 in the outlying area of Milheeze, east of the road from Deurne to De Rips. Preparatory work for this research will take place in the weeks before. SCAN is conducting this research by order of the Ministry of Climate and Green Growth. The municipality of Gemert-Bakel has no role in this research.
