Resumen de The coming boom in geothermal fracking.
The article discusses the use of gas drilling technology, called hydraulic fracturing (fracking), to access geothermal energy. Topics include an analysis by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) that suggests fracking is an economical way to harvest geothermal energy, geothermal energy development, and the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE's) investment in a fracking-enhanced geothermal system (EGS) by geothermal specialists Ormat Technologies.
