Characterisation of the Basel 1 enhanced geothermal system
Geothermics, 2008Abstract This paper describes the steps that have been undertaken to create an enhanced geothermal system (EGS) at the Deep Heat Mining Project in Basel, Switzerland. Preliminary results from drilling, logging, hydraulic testing and stimulating the Basel 1 well are summarized.

Challenges for Numerical Modeling of Enhanced Geothermal Systems
Groundwater, 2010A recent guest editorial by Wood (2009) pointed out the potential of enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) as a future source of “green” energy and suggested that EGS offers research opportunities for hydrogeologists seeking to become involved in the world’s energy future.

Enhanced geothermal systems (EGS): A review
Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2016Abstract Geothermal energy is a renewable energy source that can be found in abundance on our planet. Only a small fraction of it is currently converted to electrical power, though in recent years installed geothermal capacity has increased considerably all over the world.

Adaptive Hierarchical Fracture Model for Enhanced Geothermal Systems
Multiscale Modeling & Simulation, 2016Summary: In enhanced geothermal systems, cold working fluid (usually water) is injected into a fractured reservoir to enhance the efficiency of the power plant by increasing the conductivity of existing fractures and by creating new ones. For the modeling of single phase flow and transport in such dynamically changing fractured reservoirs, a new ...

Beyond Hydrocarbon Extraction: Enhanced Geothermal Systems
2016There are many forms of energy that exist subsurface. Mining typically extracts minerals that are energy rich and processes them to produce electricity. The oil and gas industry extracts hydrocarbons with high energy content that are suitable for energy production.

Fracture reactivation for permeability enhancement in geothermal systems
2020<p>While the deep granitic basement in the Upper Rhine Graben is currently being exploited as a geothermal reservoir at numerous geothermal sites, the Permo-Triassic sandstones that lie directly above the granite are critical to continued regional hydrothermal convection.

Magnetotelluric monitoring of permeability enhancement at enhanced geothermal system project
Geothermics, 2017Abstract Magnetotelluric (MT) data were collected across the Habanero Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) project in the Cooper Basin, South Australia. A baseline regional MT survey consisting of two profiles were collected to delineate subsurface resistivity structure.
