Abstract

There are numerous natural outflows, 3 thermal baths, 9 disused geothermal wells, and 3 private companies operating in the Seferihisar geothermal system, including a power plant generating electricity. The potential of these resources is suitable for non-electrical use of geothermal energy, such as greenhouse heating and thermal tourism. SWOT analysis method has been used to assess the pros and cons of the geothermal resource in Seferihisar, aiding the identification of suitable applications and investments for both present and future projects. The region is rich in terms of geothermal resources and has convenient access to both public and ware transport, which are described as strengths of the resource. However, poor management and an excess of licensed geothermal fields weaken the effective consumption of the system. A huge number of projects have led to opposition from environmentalist groups. The proven technology of geothermal energy has resulted in an increase in incentives and investment consolidations with governmental support. In the light of SWOT analysis, considering SO, ST, WO, and WT strategies, the untapped geothermal resources present in the Seferihisar geothermal system, combined with the natural attractions and cultural richness of the county, will contribute significantly to non-electrical/direct uses of the geothermal energy in the near future

液态为主的活性地热系统对地热能非电力用途的 SWOT 分析：案例研究，塞费里希萨尔-伊兹密尔

塞费里希萨尔地热系统有许多自然流出物、3 个温泉浴场、9 口废弃的地热井和 3 家私营公司，其中包括一家发电厂。这些资源的潜力适用于地热能的非电力用途，如温室供暖和热旅游。采用 SWOT 分析方法评估了塞费里希萨尔地热资源的利弊，有助于确定当前和未来项目的适当应用和投资。该地区地热资源丰富，公共交通和器械交通便利，这些都是该资源的优势。然而，管理不善和过多的许可地热田削弱了系统的有效消耗。大量项目遭到了环保组织的反对。地热能源技术已得到验证，因此，在政府的支持下，激励措施和投资整合不断增加。根据 SWOT 分析，考虑到 SO、ST、WO 和 WT 战略，Seferihisar 地热系统中尚未开发的地热资源与该县的自然景点和丰富的文化相结合，将在不久的将来极大地促进地热能的非电力/直接利用。

期刊介绍： Acta Montanistica Slovaca publishes high quality articles on basic and applied research in the following fields: geology and geological survey; mining; Earth resources; underground engineering and geotechnics; mining mechanization, mining transport, deep hole drilling; ecotechnology and mineralurgy; process control, automation and applied informatics in raw materials extraction, utilization and processing; other similar fields. Acta Montanistica Slovaca is the only scientific journal of this kind in Central, Eastern and South Eastern Europe. The submitted manuscripts should contribute significantly to the international literature, even if the focus can be regional. Manuscripts should cite the extant and relevant international literature, should clearly state what the wider contribution is (e.g. a novel discovery, application of a new technique or methodology, application of an existing methodology to a new problem), and should discuss the importance of the work in the international context.
