Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS)
A geothermal power system that creates artificial reservoirs by drilling into hot dry rock and fracturing it, then circulating water through the fractures to extract heat. EGS removes the need for natural underground water and permeability.
Why It Matters
EGS could expand geothermal from a niche resource (3.7 GW in a few western states) to a major 100+ GW clean energy source available across most of the U.S. — providing 24/7, weather-independent clean power.
