#FrackingCleanEnergy: #geothermal could generate between 10 and 20 percent of the country’s #electricity in the coming decades, according to recent studies from the Department of #Energy and Princeton.
Enhanced geothermal could also solve one of clean energy’s biggest problems: #intermittency.

I don't know anything about this specific technology, but it's hugely frustrating to see the media frame ANYTHING as a #SilverBullet, as this article seems to.
Dealing with #intermittency will require reconfiguration of technological, business models and behaviours, not just deploying a single technology
There are also lots of technological solutions ALREADY being deployed to work with intermittent #renewables.
