Der Verein GTÖ Geothermie für Österreich (Association for Geothermal Energy for Austria) functions as an umbrella organization representing geothermal operators and stakeholders in Austria. The organization promotes the development and deployment of geothermal energy for heating, cooling, and electricity generation through education, research coordination, webinars, and policy advocacy.
