Abstract
Bangladesh is facing a lot of drawbacks to acquire sustainable development owing to lack of electricity. Now a days the demand of power is increasing day by day in Bangladesh. Now Bangladesh needs a reliable green energy source to meet the demand. To improve the power crisis in our country geothermal energy can be a vital & useful alternative. Bangladesh is one of the largest deltas and having a large sedimentary basin. It has many abandoned gas wells (temperature: more than 100°C in the depth of 3 km to 4 km). The main theme of this paper is to discuss about geothermal energy and its prospects in Bangladesh.
