The European geothermal power consumption in agriculture and forestry exhibits significant variation across countries. The Netherlands leads with a substantial consumption of 179.5 Ktoe in 2023, witnessing a positive growth of 15.04% year-on-year. Meanwhile, Hungary follows with 39.41 Ktoe, although showing a slight decline of 1.53% from the previous year. Smaller users like Iceland and Macedonia demonstrate marginal year-on-year changes, while Croatia and Serbia face notable reductions of 12.54% and 20.71% respectively. Over the past five years, contrasting growth patterns suggest divergent trajectories influenced by national priorities and resource availability.
Future trends to watch include the increasing adoption of geothermal power driven by the EU's Green Deal objectives, innovations in geothermal technology, and the broader push towards sustainable agricultural practices. Countries with existing infrastructure and favorable geothermal conditions, like the Netherlands and Italy, may experience accelerated growth, while others may prioritize investment in geothermal resources as part of a broader renewable energy agenda.
