“…The context of commons ownership [141] can be applied to the system of geothermal royalties. Basing on the Ostrom classification of property rights local communities can gain fairer access to the geothermal resources and a system of geothermal royalties reoriented towards broader participation of stakeholders increases the legitimacy of a resource management regime [65]. The concept of geothermal royalties opens a discussion about sustainable local development using common pool resources.…”

This paper investigates the theoretical foundation for developing renewable geothermal resources locally. For this reason, we pay attention to the role of communities in geothermal development. This study presents arguments for a framework that approaches the geothermal resources as an endogenous factor of community development. To analyse it, we create a model that explains the local economic characters of the geothermal exploitation beyond its geological conditions. It aims to conceptualise a community based geothermal development standard referring to the endogeneity principle. Geothermal energy is given attention since the characteristics of this resource determine its use locally. We argue that the role of communities in geothermal exploitation is pivotal in the process of green growth for further expansion of geothermal energy use.
