Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) by the United States Department of Energy

Enhanced geothermal systems (EGS), or human-made geothermal energy, holds the potential to power more than 65 million American homes and businesses, and is the next frontier for renewable energy deployment. The Geothermal Technologies Office (GTO) EGS program supports research, development, and demonstration projects that guide enhanced geothermal technologies towards commercial viability.
