Energy is a vital need for a country. Therefore, it is essential for countries to be independent in terms of energy. One of the most appropriate ways to do this is to increase the use of renewable energy. However, there are some barriers to this process, such as high costs. Shallow geothermal systems are also energy types that will reduce the energy dependence of countries in this process. Nevertheless, the negative aspects of renewable energy projects also apply to shallow geothermal systems. In parallel, in this study, it is aimed to determine the issues that are important for increasing shallow geothermal energy investments. In this framework, balanced scorecard-based criteria were analyzed with the DEMATEL method. As a result, it has been determined that the issues related to research and development have the most importance in this process. Therefore, in order to develop these systems, it would be appropriate for countries to primarily conduct research on new technologies.
