In this study, the determination of geothermal energy in the Aegean region and determination of the use of geothermal energy in greenhouse cultivation were investigated. The results were compared with the related literature. Heating of greenhouses with geothermal energy sources will help to increase our greenhouse areas by providing economic cultivation opportunities if technical and environmental precautions are taken. For the data on thermal areas and active faults for Denizli, Aydin and Afyonkarahisar provinces where geothermal resources are used, the data of the General Directorate of Mineral Research and Exploration was used. The geothermal energy potential map of the provinces has been tried to be obtained from these data. From these maps, the locations of the greenhouses and geothermal energy heating greenhouses were compared. The development of greenhouses making use of geothermal energy in Turkey will provide significant contributions to greenhouse cultivation in all regions and especially in the Aegean Region. In conclusion, we are of the opinion that the maps drawn during this study will shed light to producers who are considering the use of geothermal energy for their greenhouses in the study area.
