Couldn't they just not inject as much water into the injection hole? Then presumably the steam hole would stop making steam.

- pfdietz 3y agoThis sort of system has a kind of built-in storage. It can overproduce steam for a while, if needed, even if that level of steam production is not sustainable in steady state. This is nice for countering some short-term variability of other renewable sources, particularly solar.
