The Forschungskollegium Physik des Erdkörpers (FKPE), together with its working group AG Induced Seismicity (AGIS), has adopted a new position paper on the preparation of seismic hazard assessments for deep geothermal projects.

In addition to the general structure of hazard assessments, the position paper also deals with the mitigation of seismic risk using so-called "traffic light systems". The position paper provides an overview of the state of the art, discusses limitations and makes recommendations for the design of a traffic light system.

The preparation of the position paper was supported by scientists from Q-con, some in a leading role. The position paper is available on the FKPE website ⬈.
