In 2024, Italy leads European geothermal power consumption in commercial and public services at 3.11 thousand terajoules, despite a 1.21% decline from 2023. Germany follows at 2.52 thousand terajoules, with a minor drop of 0.62%. Bulgaria, with a notable 1.85% increase, matches Iceland's consumption at 1.59 thousand terajoules. Hungary shows outstanding growth at 5.42%, reaching 1.19 thousand terajoules. Smaller markets like Romania, France, and Slovenia exhibit modest growth, while the UK's consumption decreased by 6.27%, leading to a low position at 0.0123 thousand terajoules.
Future trends to watch:
• Increased emphasis on renewable energy policies and investments may boost geothermal capacity.
• Southern and Eastern European countries might leverage geothermal resources more aggressively.
• Technological advances could lower costs, expanding geothermal use in commercial and public sectors.
• Market volatility might impact growth rates in geothermal energy adoption across Europe.
