Since 1994, the Federal German Geothermal Association has been awarding the Patricius Medal to individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the development of geothermal energy use.
The prize consists of a certificate and a medal. This year, the German Geothermal Association awarded the medal to Pierre UNGEMACH, Chairman and CEO of GPC IP/GEOFLUID, for his life's work.
President Dr. Karin Thelen and Gregor Dilger, Managing Director of the German Geothermal Association, presented the prize, and the laudatory speech was held Ernst Huenges.
