Review of discrete fracture network characterization for geothermal energy extraction

Geothermal reservoirs are highly anisotropic and heterogeneous, and thus require a variety of structural geology, geomechanical, remote sensing, geophysical and hydraulic techniques to inform Discrete Fracture Network flow models. Following the Paris Agreement on reduction of carbon emissions, such...
