Abstract
Geothermal energy is a highly advantageous renewable energy source for countries on the Pacific Ring of Fire, including Malaysia. From 2008 to 2009, the Minerals and Geoscience Department discovered a promising geothermal well in Apas Kiri, Tawau, Sabah, which could potentially provide a significant renewable energy source for the country. However, Malaysia faces several challenges in adopting geothermal energy, including regulatory constraints, technical difficulties, and economic factors. This paper aims to explore these obstacles and discuss the importance of renewable energy in Malaysia’s energy mix. To gain a comprehensive insight into the challenges preventing Malaysia from fully embracing geothermal energy, it is helpful to examine the experiences of countries such as the Philippines and Indonesia, which have already established geothermal wells. By comparing these nations’ approaches and strategies, we can identify potential barriers to geothermal energy development in Malaysia and explore the reasons for such obstacles. Such a comparative analysis can provide valuable insights and inform policy decisions promoting sustainable energy development in Malaysia.
