In 2023, Iceland led Europe in gross electricity production from geothermal power with significant capacity, followed closely by Italy. Noteworthy is Germany's impressive 10.41% growth, and Croatia's substantial 119.24% increase, signaling a notable shift. Hungary also showed positive growth at 20.22%. In contrast, Austria experienced a slight decline. Other countries like Portugal, France, and Romania registered minor increases, emphasizing moderate progress in leveraging geothermal resources across Europe.
Future trends suggest a continued focus on expanding geothermal power infrastructure across European countries. This may include technological advancements, policy support, and investment to enhance energy diversity and sustainability, particularly in underutilized regions.
