The purpose of this research is to look at the process of granting geothermal management and also to look at geothermal management in conversion forests. The method used is the Normative juridical method by conducting studies based on reading materials which is then analyzed and described in the form of a description. The results of this study are that the licensing of geothermal exploitation management in accordance with law number 21 of 2014 provides open opportunities by conducting an auction and concession permit which lasts for 37 years and can be extended for 20 years by submitting an extension of a maximum of 5 years and no later than 3 years while granting licenses may expire returned revoked or canceled. Geothermal management in a conversion forest can also be done by first having to obtain an environmental utilization permit because the largest geothermal potential is in the forest so the government gives a policy through law number 21 of 2014 to be able to manage geothermal energy in the conversion forest as long as it can maintain sustainability the forest environment itself.
