Tailor-made risk governance for induced seismicity of geothermal energy projects: An application to Switzerland
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Geothermics"
DOI: 10.1016/j.geothermics.2016.10.006
Abstract: Fully open or partly open geothermal systems can induce potentially damaging seismicity. How this seismicity should be addressed depends on the geothermal system, its operational characteristics, the geological context, exposed buildings, existing infrastructure and populations,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijggc.2018.05.016
Abstract: Abstract Fluid injection is known to induce seismic events if the injection causes fracturing of the surrounding rock or if resulting pressure changes reactivate pre-existing faults and fractures. Carbon dioxide (CO2) storage projects where CO2… read more here.
