India is making strides in geothermal energy development, supported by international collaborations with the US, Norway, and Iceland, as well as a new national policy. The government aims to unlock 10 GW of geothermal potential through pilot projects and financing support, while also exploring funding mechanisms.

With 381 geothermal springs identified, the initiative includes establishing a centre of excellence and facilitating state-level exploration and development. The emphasis on geothermal energy aligns with global trends, as it offers reliable, continuous power generation capabilities.
