Brief explanation of rationale behind these models Streamline approach for fracture flow (Pruess and Bodvarsson, 1983; Heidinger et al., 2006) Area of fractures (A) and flow rate (Q) and Number of fractures (N) primarily relate to the sustainibility in time of the high temperatures. � � � � � � Narea c � � � � Seg G G G � � � � c ( Q ) � � � � � F seg T T ( T T ) erfc � � out _ res G G in _ res � t tdel � � � � � � ENGINE final meeting 8

Taking into account uncertainties and engineering options TNOs experience from Oil and Gas E&P “Decision and risk management” Research consortia (1997-2003) BHPBilliton AND Scenarios vs. Continuous probability functions (MC) • ENGINE final meeting 11
DSS model : Mixing discrete and continuous uncertainties, decision trees • Design decision (discrete) • Normal plant (costs 1.5 mln/ MWe, eff=0.68) • Higheff plant (costs 2 mln/ MWe, eff=0.8) • Uncertainties (continuous) • Fracture area 2-4 km2 • Inflow other than “connected” fracture 50-90% • Uncertainties (discrete) • Having 1 (80%) ,2 or 3 fractures (each 10%) ENGINE final meeting 12

Conclusions EGS • Fast models are available in EXCEL • Excel spread-sheet (and DSS) to be distributed as Engine WP9 deliverable. Excel can be easily modified (no black box). DSS fully probabilistic, scenario trees etc. • Models allow to rationalize added value of new research for exploration and production ENGINE final meeting 21
