DESTRESS demonstrated methods used in enhanced geothermal systems (EGSs). The aim was to expand knowledge and to provide solutions for a more economical, sustainable and environmentally responsible exploitation of underground heat. EGSs allow the enormous untapped potential of geothermal energy to be put to widespread use. DESTRESS improved the understanding of  technological, business and societal opportunities and risks related to geothermal energy. Existing and new project sites had been chosen to demonstrate the DESTRESS concept.
