The objective of this paper is to introduce geothermal energy resources, utilization,
development roadmap, and government support in China. Over the last 20 years, China was …

Hydraulic fracturing is an efficient stimulation means for the exploitation of unconventional
oil/gas resources as well as geothermal energy. However, there are several issues for …

A novel enhanced geothermal system with multilateral wells is proposed to extract heat from
hot dry rock in this study. For this EGS, one main wellbore is drilled to hot dry rock. Several …

Abstract The Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) creates an artificial geothermal reservoir
by hydraulic fracturing which allows heat transmission through the fractures by the …

The deep geothermal energy produced from Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) has a
great development prospect because of enormous potential and environmental friendliness …

The geothermal heat production from Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) is influenced by
complex thermal-hydraulic-mechanical (THM) coupling process, it is necessary to consider …

Creating an open, connected fracture by hydraulic stimulation is vital to heat mining in an
enhanced geothermal system (EGS). The existence of natural fractures, which seriously …

Heat extraction mode, eg well layout or arrangement of wells, of enhanced or engineered
geothermal system (EGS) is crucial to its performance and directly affects its commercial …

Our previous study (Song et al., 2018) proposed a novel enhanced geothermal system
(EGS) with multilateral wells and demonstrated that it had greater heat extraction …

Operational parameters optimization is of great significance to improve overall heat
extraction performance from the hydrothermal or enhanced geothermal system. Injection …
