| Abstract | China’s geothermal resources are widely distributed and they feature multiple types. They are distributed with obvious patterns and along certain geographies. Based on the survey results of geothermal resources in China during the 12th Five-Year Plan period, and on the basis of systematic analysis of the distribution and characteristics of geothermal resources in China, this paper assesses the potential of shallow geothermal resources, geothermal resources of hydrothermal type and geothermal resource of hot dry rocks type. China’s geothermal resources are relevantly abundant. Geothermal resources can efficiently cut emissions and save energy. They can also effectively reduce dust haze. |
