The Rising Demand for Geothermal Power Market: Trends & Forecasts

The global geothermal power market was valued at $4.6 billion in 2018, and is projected to reach $6.8 billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 5.0% from 2019 to 2026.

Geothermal power is a renewable energy technology that harnesses the heat stored within the Earth’s core to generate electricity and provide heating and cooling for various applications. It relies on the natural heat flow from the Earth’s interior to its surface.

The dry steam power stations segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of 3.9% by 2026.

The Industrial segment dominated the geothermal power market share in 2018 and is expected to grow with the CAGR of 5.0% during the forecast period.

The key players operating in the global geothermal power industry include ABB, EDF, Enel Spa, General Electric (GE), The Tata Power Company Limited, Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems Inc., Toshiba Corporation, Korea Electric Power Corporation, Siemens AG, and Yokogawa Electric Corporation.

  1. Applications:
    • Geothermal energy can be used directly for heating and cooling in various applications, such as district heating, greenhouses, and spas.
    • Direct use systems circulate geothermal fluid through heat exchangers to provide space heating or produce hot water.
  2. Environmental Benefits:
    • Geothermal power is considered a clean and sustainable energy source because it produces minimal greenhouse gas emissions and air pollutants.
    • It provides a reliable and consistent source of baseload electricity, which can help stabilize the grid.

In 2018, the Asia-Pacific market accounts for 34.9% share in the geothermal power market.

The binary cycle power stations segment is expected to hold a dominant position in the geothermal power market size during the forecast period.

The geothermal power market growth is driven by rise in investment in renewable energy projects in the region. Moreover, significant increase in energy demand due to rapid industrialization and rise in population in countries such as China and India are expected to boost the market growth.

Asia-Pacific was the highest revenue contributor in 2018 and is expected to grow with a CAGR of 5.8%. Asia-Pacific and North America collectively accounted for around 68.6% share in 2018, with the former constituting around 35.0% share.

China and the U.S. have witnessed noteworthy growth in the production of electric vehicles. Electric vehicles not only create opportunities for the geothermal power market in the transportation sector but also reduce the greenhouse gas (GHGs) emissions.

Rise in electric vehicles is expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities to the global geothermal power. This is attributed to the fact that electric mobility has considerably increased the consumption of energy in the transportation sector.

Electricity Generation:

  • Geothermal power plants use the heat from the Earth to produce steam or hot water that drives turbines connected to generators.
  • There are three main types of geothermal power plants: dry steam, flash steam, and binary cycle.
  • Dry steam power plants use high-temperature steam directly from underground reservoirs.
  • Flash steam power plants use high-pressure hot water from the reservoir. The water is depressurized to produce steam, which powers the turbines.
  • Binary cycle power plants transfer heat from the geothermal fluid to a secondary fluid with a lower boiling point. The secondary fluid is vaporized to power the turbines.

Geothermal power plants utilize steam to produce energy. The steam is generated from reservoirs of hot water found below the earth’s surface.

In the process of energy generation, the steam rotates a turbine that activates a generator to produce energy. With growing demand for energy, it is expected that the requirement of geothermal power generation will increase notably.

The industrial sectors are expected to consume more energy during the forecast period attributed to rise in use of geothermal power plants in the industrial sector.

India possesses significant growth potential due to increase in investments in renewable energy projects in India. Thus, India is one of the major countries experiencing rapid growth in the Asia-Pacific geothermal power market.

For instance, in March 2019, Eversource Capital, a Joint venture between Everstone and Lightsource, planned to invest $1 billion in renewable energy in India through its Green Growth Equity Fund.

These investments and developments will increase the acceptability of geothermal power in the renewable energy market.
