This review presents an economic analysis of Enhanced Geothermal Systems, which are a way of making efficient, large-scale use of the enormous resources offered by geothermal energy. Existing software packages for ...

In this research, we have investigated the illitization process in Quaternary calc-alkaline volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks in the active Tinguiririca geothermal field (Andean Cordillera, central Chile). XRD, SEM, and ...

This document presents a study into the working fluids that can be used at an Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) plant as a way of making efficient, large-scale use of the enormous resources offered by geothermal energy. First, ...

This paper assesses the electrical generating capacity of the Copahue geothermal field. Because it plays a critical role in driving financial support, we discuss these results in terms of its geothermal project. We performed ...

The volcano-hosted geothermal system of Copahue is one of the most promising resources of renewable energy in Argentina. It is driven by a layered reservoir composed of a steam cap above a deep liquid-dominated reservoir. ...

Geothermal fields in subduction-related orogens are closely linked to areas characterized by young magmatic and tectonic activity, both in arc- and back-arc settings. The spatio-temporal interaction of Quaternary volcanic ...
