The laboratory team had the pleasure of welcoming Dominique Potier, Member of Parliament for the 5th district of Meurthe-et-Moselle on Wednesday, August 28, 2019. This meeting took place as part of the CNRS’s 80th anniversary celebrations, an initiative to bring the worlds of research and politics closer together.

After a presentation of the GeoRessources laboratory and the Regalor project by Jacques Pironon and Philippe de Donato, Dominique was able to discover the equipment of the platforms on the Artem sites and the Steval pilot plant.

From the device used to control the behaviour of underground structures to the pilot plant for the valorisation of mining resources, as well as the storage of CO2 in the subsoil, Mr. Potier was able to appreciate the laboratory’s extensive research work on the energy transition.
