Abstract:

Geothermal resources are a new type of clean energy which will become a vital part of post-petroleum era. In the context of energy crisis and worsening environmental pollution, it has strategic meaning to speed up the development and utilization of geothermal resources, but there are some problems such as inefficiency and environmental impact.The main reason lies in the absence of governmental duties, which can be improved by clarifying governmental duties in geothermal resources, optimizing legislation, enhancing administration, guaranteeing public involvement, using administrative monopolization with discretion, and polishing administrative responsibilities.This can achieve a sustainable use of geothermal resources and ensure the security of national energy.

Key words: low carbon economy, energy security, geothermal resources, governmental duty, system construction

摘要：

地热资源是一种新型清洁能源，将成为未来“后石油时代”能源结构的重要组成部分。在当今世界能源危机和环境污染加剧的背景下，在低碳经济条件下，加快地热资源的开发利用具有十分重要的战略意义。但我国地热资源开发利用中存在效率低、环境破坏威胁等问题，其原因主要是政府职责缺位。为了强化政府职能，应当明确政府履行地热资源行政职责的内容，即完善地热资源立法、加强行政执法、保障公众参与、慎用行政垄断和健全行政责任制等，实现地热资源的可持续利用，确保国家能源安全。
