In recent decades, geothermal energy has become increasingly important as an alternative energy source that can support national energy security and economic sustainability in developing countries. This article discusses the potential of geothermal resources and their implications for national defense and economic sustainability in developing countries. The author presents an overview of the potential of geothermal energy in developing countries and then discusses its implications for national defense and economic sustainability. This article also discusses the challenges and opportunities faced by developing countries in harnessing the potential of geothermal energy to strengthen energy security and support economic growth. The method used in this research is literature analysis and case studies. Data was collected from sources such as official government reports, academic studies, and scientific journal articles. The results of the study show that geothermal energy has great potential in supporting national defense and economic sustainability in developing countries. However, there are still many challenges to be overcome in developing the geothermal energy industry, including difficulties in identifying geothermal resource potential and building the necessary infrastructure to harness it. Nevertheless, this article shows that geothermal energy can be a promising solution for developing countries to strengthen energy security and support sustainable economic growth.

This paper discusses changes in environmental quality caused by the increase in the earth’s temperature which is increasing every year. The impact of rising earth temperature includes environmental damage, economic losses, and social losses. Therefore, several countries have discussed renewable energy as a solution to withstand the increase in earth’s temperature, one of which is through the concept of NZE (Net Zero Energy) which aims to reduce dependence on fossil energy sources. The implementation of NZE in Indonesia in 2060 is expected to support the national Net Zero Emission (NZE) 2060 program, which is a continuation of the follow-up to the Paris Agreement. In addition, the author also relates government support in order to maximize the potential of Renewable Energy in the Application of NZE can also support the defense of the Indonesian state. The research method used is a qualitative method in the form of an objective narrative literature review.
