Abstract
Depletion of geothermal reservoirs and difficulties in increasing power output are serious problems for geothermal power stations in Japan. NEDO has been conducting a project entitled ìDevelopment of Technology for Reservoir Mass and Heat Flow Characterizationî since 1997. In this project, techniques to stabilize electrical output fiom geothermal power stations and to explore the areas surrounding existing geothermal fields are being developed.
