Untapped Geothermal Potential in Emerging Economies Fuels Asia Pacific Geothermal Power Generation Market
Heat flows from the Earth's interior that covers twice the global energy demand. To harness this heat, there is a requirement to drill deep underground and convert that heat into a usable form of energy. Another main advantage of geothermal energy is that it can provide baseload capacity, which is the minimum amount of electricity that must be available on the grid at any given time. While solar and wind output fluctuates seasonally and throughout the day, geothermal generation can be adjusted in the same way that a fossil fuel power plant can increase or decrease output. In addition, the government initiatives toward exploring the untapped geothermal potential globally. For instance, to help countries unlock the untapped potential of geothermal energy and promote its widespread use, the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) established the Global Geothermal Alliance (GGA) in 2015 as a platform to improve dialogue, collaboration, and coordinated action to increase the share of geothermal power installed as well as heat generation worldwide. Moreover, Indonesia, Turkey, and Kenya are key economies expected to lead in geothermal electricity generation by the end of 2030. Thus, exploring the untapped geothermal potential in emerging economies is expected to create several opportunities for the geothermal power generation market growth during the forecast period.
Asia Pacific Geothermal Power Generation Market Overview
The Asia Pacific geothermal power generation market is segmented into Japan, Indonesia, New Zealand, the Philippines, and the Rest of Asia Pacific. In 2023, Asia Pacific held the largest geothermal power generation market share of ~39.6% in the geothermal power generation market worldwide and is expected to record a CAGR of 5.9% from 2023 to 2031. This is owing to the presence of geothermal power-generating countries, including Indonesia, the Philippines, New Zealand, and Japan. The demand for power in Asia Pacific continues to increase owing to rapid industrialization across the region, which has further led to increased generation of sustainable electricity. Moreover, increasing government initiatives and funding toward the construction of geothermal power plants in the region is projected to fuel the geothermal power generation market growth in the coming years.
