Abstract

Global geothermal energy utilisation for power generation and direct-use applications have increased over the past 25 years, with Asia having the fastest growth in direct-use applications, which suggests a high demand for geothermal resources in Asia. This review seeks to fill a critical gap in the existing literature on geothermal development in South, Southeast and East Asia. It covers geological background, government policy, technological advancement, and socio-economic factors. This review also provides each country’s current state of geothermal energy usage and insights into the respective government plans and initiatives to maintain and increase geothermal energy utilisation. The countries have been categorised into low- and high-temperature resource countries and their main geothermal heat utilisations have been identified. Countries trying to increase geothermal energy in their energy portfolios should continue to explore geothermal resources and to develop a pool of local expertise to be rightly positioned to adopt these emerging technologies.

南亚、东南亚和东亚的地热开发：综述

过去 25 年来，全球发电和直接利用地热能源的利用率不断提高，其中亚洲直接利用地热能源的利用率增长最快，这表明亚洲对地热资源的需求很大。本综述旨在填补有关南亚、东南亚和东亚地热开发的现有文献中的重要空白。它涵盖了地质背景、政府政策、技术进步和社会经济因素。本综述还介绍了每个国家的地热能利用现状，以及各国政府为保持和提高地热能利用率而制定的计划和采取的举措。这些国家被分为低温资源国和高温资源国，并确定了其主要的地热利用方式。试图在其能源组合中增加地热能源的国家应继续勘探地热资源，并发展当地的专业人才库，为采用这些新兴技术做好充分准备。

期刊介绍： The mission of Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews is to disseminate the most compelling and pertinent critical insights in renewable and sustainable energy, fostering collaboration among the research community, private sector, and policy and decision makers. The journal aims to exchange challenges, solutions, innovative concepts, and technologies, contributing to sustainable development, the transition to a low-carbon future, and the attainment of emissions targets outlined by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews publishes a diverse range of content, including review papers, original research, case studies, and analyses of new technologies, all featuring a substantial review component such as critique, comparison, or analysis. Introducing a distinctive paper type, Expert Insights, the journal presents commissioned mini-reviews authored by field leaders, addressing topics of significant interest. Case studies undergo consideration only if they showcase the work's applicability to other regions or contribute valuable insights to the broader field of renewable and sustainable energy. Notably, a bibliographic or literature review lacking critical analysis is deemed unsuitable for publication.
