In 2023, Iceland led European geothermal heat production with 41.08 thousand terajoules, followed by France at 7.63. While Germany experienced the highest year-on-year growth at 14.75%, Denmark recorded a decline of 8.48%. Over the past year, most countries showed moderate growth, with notable increases in France and Germany. Hungary and Romania maintained modest growth rates, whereas Austria and Lithuania saw little to no change.
Looking forward, Europe's geothermal sector is expected to focus on technological advancements and energy efficiency. With growing demand for sustainable energy, investment in geothermal infrastructure could expand significantly, particularly in countries with already established gains like Iceland and France.
