Asia-Pacific geothermal power market share was the highest revenue contributor in 2018 and is expected to grow with a CAGR of 5.8%. Asia-Pacific and North America collectively accounted for around 68.6% share in 2018, with the former constituting around 35.0% share.
China and the U.S. have witnessed noteworthy growth in the production of electric vehicles. Electric vehicles not only create opportunities for the geothermal power market in the transportation sector but also reduce the greenhouse gas (GHGs) emissions.
The key players operating in the global geothermal power industry include ABB, EDF, Enel Spa, General Electric (GE), The Tata Power Company Limited, Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems Inc., Toshiba Corporation, Korea Electric Power Corporation, Siemens AG, and Yokogawa Electric Corporation.
The dry steam power stations segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of 3.9% by 2026.
The Industrial segment dominated the geothermal power market share in 2018 and is expected to grow with the CAGR of 5.0% during the forecast period.
In 2018, the Asia-Pacific market accounts for 34.9% share in the geothermal power market.
The binary cycle power stations segment is expected to hold a dominant position in the geothermal power market size during the forecast period.
Rise in electric vehicles is expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities to the global geothermal power. This is attributed to the fact that electric mobility has considerably increased the consumption of energy in the transportation sector.
Types of Geothermal Power Plants
Dry Steam Plants: Use steam directly from geothermal reservoirs to turn turbines.
Flash Steam Plants: Bring high-pressure hot water to the surface, causing it to “flash” into steam that drives turbines.
Binary Cycle Plants: Transfer heat from geothermal water to a secondary fluid with a lower boiling point, which vaporizes and drives turbines.

Geothermal power plants utilize steam to produce energy. The steam is generated from reservoirs of hot water found below the earth’s surface.
In the process of energy generation, the steam rotates a turbine that activates a generator to produce energy. With growing demand for energy, it is expected that the requirement of geothermal power generation will increase notably.
The industrial sectors are expected to consume more energy during the forecast period attributed to rise in use of geothermal power plants in the industrial sector.
India possesses significant growth potential due to increase in investments in renewable energy projects in India. Thus, India is one of the major countries experiencing rapid growth in the Asia-Pacific geothermal power market.
For instance, in March 2019, Eversource Capital, a Joint venture between Everstone and Lightsource, planned to invest $1 billion in renewable energy in India through its Green Growth Equity Fund.
These investments and developments will increase the acceptability of geothermal power in the renewable energy market.
