Abstract
Sustainable development requires the use of sustainable energy systems. Energy use will increase worldwide, and geothermal energy consumption for both electricity generation and heating will also increase significantly. Sustainable use of geothermal energy means that it is produced and used outdoors, which is compatible with the well-being of future generations and the environment. This paper provides a review of the links between the development of geothermal energy used in HVAC systems and sustainable development, as well as a review of the sustainability assessment frameworks currently available.
