Paper by Peter Niemz et al., (Geothermics) describes seismic observations from the circulation tests at FORGE using only the regional (near-)surface network of the UUSS.
As part of the Energy & Geoscience Institute‘s Spring Webinar Series, Dr. Joseph Moore recently gave an overview of geothermal energy and enhanced geothermal systems.
… Enhanced geothermal systems are characterized by very low permeabilities and so the goal for EGS is to create permeabilty where none exists naturally…
