Geothermal Papers and Presentations by Dr. Ritesh Arya

1. Geothermal Energy – Key Player in Future Safe Energy Solutions

— Conference paper by Dr. Ritesh Arya (Jan 2015)
This presentation underscores geothermal energy’s role as a cost-effective, 24×7 safe energy source. It highlights global geothermal reserves (~200 GW) and was delivered in his capacity as Director of Geothermal at ISEO, Geneva.

2. Geothermal Energy for Sustainable Development: A Review of Sustainability Impacts and Assessment Frameworks

— Article in Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews (2015)
This paper examines geothermal energy's fit within sustainable development frameworks and assesses its environmental and societal impacts.

3. History of Geothermal Development in India: Opportunities for Future Development

— Paper (or possibly conference/workshop presentation)
This work outlines India’s geothermal development history and explores future potential—highlighting designs like Agneyodgara (Lava Energy) for clean, sustainable energy.

4. Geothermal Sites as Tourist Destination in the Himalayas

— Presented at the World Geothermal Congress, Bali (2010)
This presentation positions geothermal locations in the Himalayas as not just for power generation, but also as attractions for tourism.

Additional Notable Geothermal Contributions

  • Indo-Norway (INDNOR) Joint Venture Project (circa 2010)
    Dr. Arya participated in an Indo–Norwegian collaborative project to study geothermal potential in the Himalayas.

  • Agneyodgara (Lava Energy) Concept
    Proposed by Dr. Arya, this concept envisions harnessing geothermal energy from magma to generate GigaWatts of clean power. Recognized among the Top 10 innovations at the World Future Energy Summit, Abu Dhabi (2010).

  • Geothermal Exploration for the Indian Army (Siachen, Ladakh)
    Dr. Arya developed lukewarm geothermal sources at Siachen Base Camp to reduce reliance on fossil fuels.
