India Geothermal Energy Potential and Capacity
Sector: Geothermal • Location: India
Source: Construction World India
A report by Project InnerSpace and CEEW estimates India's geothermal heat potential at 11,000 GW and possible geothermal power generation capacity of about 450 GW. The study identifies geothermal hotspots across several states and highlights the potential for direct heat use and electricity generation. Deployment has been limited to pilot projects due to exploration risks and high drilling costs.

Description
Description | A report by Project InnerSpace and CEEW estimates India's geothermal heat potential at 11,000 GW and possible geothermal power generation capacity of about 450 GW. The study identifies geothermal hotspots across several states and highlights the potential for direct heat use and electricity generation. Deployment has been limited to pilot projects due to exploration risks and high drilling costs. The report calls for stronger policy support, increased investment, and coordinated action to unlock geothermal energy as a pillar of India's clean energy transition. |
