Description: 
This paper presents the results of a numerical simulation study of the performance of Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS), specifically, reservoirs with subcommercial permeability enhanced by hydraulic stimulation. The performance under consideration here is the net electrical power delivered as a function of time and the parameters in this exercise reflect conditions encountered at the Desert Peak EGS project in Nevada.
