A report by Ember suggests that enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) could provide 43 GW of power in the EU for under €100/MWh. This could generate 301 TWh annually, covering 42% of expected coal and gas production by 2025.

EGS technology, which operates up to 8 km deep, is scalable across Europe, especially in Hungary and Turkey. The report warns that slow expansion could hinder Europe's leadership in renewable energy, emphasizing the need for supportive policies to facilitate large-scale projects.
