Global Geothermal Energy Market is valued at approximately USD XX billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than XX% during the forecast period 2023-2030. Geothermal energy is a renewable energy source derived from the heat stored beneath the Earth’s surface. This heat originates from the natural radioactive decay of elements in the Earth’s crust, along with the heat that was trapped during the planet’s formation. Geothermal energy can be harnessed for various applications, including electricity generation and direct-use applications. The key factors driving the market growth are the rising use of geothermal energy for power generation, surging demand for ground source/geothermal heat pumps, and growing focus on addressing the climate crisis and reducing greenhouse gas emissions that are anticipated to support the market growth during the forecast period 2023-2030.
Additionally, the rising adoption of Geothermal in industrial sectors is anticipated to create a lucrative demand for the market over the projected period. For instance, in Feb. 2021, Turboden SpA, a subsidiary of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd (MHI) and Mitsubishi Power Ltd, collaboratively disclosed securing a contract for the supply of 29 megawatts (MW) of binary cycle power generation equipment. The designated installation site for this equipment is the geothermal power plant situated in Palawan, Philippines, operated by the Energy Development Corporation (EDC). Moreover, the emergence of advanced technologies and rise of Geothermal 2.0, and the co-production and conversion of oil and gas wells for geothermal energy are anticipated to create lucrative opportunities for the market during the projected year. However, the high growth of solar, wind, gas, and other alternative renewable energy sources, and the lack of exploration and drilling techniques required to identify and develop undiscovered geothermal resources stifles market growth throughout the forecast period of 2023-2030.
The key regions considered for the Global Geothermal Energy Market study includes Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. North America dominated the market in 2022 owing to the cohesive government’s financial incentives, tax credits, and supportive policies, increasing public awareness and acceptance of renewable energy sources, including geothermal, and the presence of key market players. Whereas, the Asia Pacific is expected to grow at the fastest growth rate over the forecast period, owing to factors such as the increasing energy demand, supportive government policies, advances in geothermal exploration, drilling technologies, plant efficiency, and increasing awareness of the benefits of geothermal energy.
