Hot dry rock system. New technology for geothermal energy utilization.

open access: yesJournal of the Fuel Society of Japan, 1988
Geothermal Energy is one of the most important national energy resources. In Japan, nine geothermal energy power plants are under operation and produce 21.5MW by developing a natural hydrothermal reservoir located in a depth of 1, 000m to 2, 000m. In order to increase the electric power from geothermal reservoir, hot dry rock in a high temperature ...
