That region of the globe is overdue for a really large earthquake anyway. When it happens, and it will happen, it will be blamed on this sort of technology irrespective of actual, uh, “fault.”

The big difference is that fracking isn’t dumping water onto superheated rock causing the water to flash to steam. (Which creates some serious pressure)

This is right up there with the plan to send millions of mirrors into orbit to reflect the sunlight and reduce “global warming.”

Just remember, if you ever drop your keys into a river of molten lava, let 'em go.
Because, man, they're gone.

"They hope the water comes back to the surface fast enough and hot enough to create cheap, clean electricity that isnt dependent on sunny skies or stiff breezes without shaking the earth and rattling the nerves of nearby residents." Operative words: THEY HOPE!

If there really is intelligent life somewhere in the universe, I sure hope they aren’t watching us. Dumping 24 million gallons of water into a volcano! No there’s an idea!

Inflate a balloon too much and it loudly goes "Pop,"
Build up pressure near Earth's surface and it will "Pop," too, with a shock wave that might circle the Earth several times ... as in the 1883 Krakatoa event.
the following is from Wikipedia:
The pressure wave generated by the colossal final explosion radiated from Krakatoa at 1,086 km/h (675 mph).[3] It was so powerful that it ruptured the eardrums of sailors on ships in the Sunda Strait[4] and caused a spike of more than two and half inches of mercury (ca 85 hPa) in pressure gauges attached to gasometers in the Jakarta gasworks, sending them off the scale.[5] The pressure wave radiated across the globe and was recorded on barographs all over the world, which continued to register it up to 5 days after the explosion. Barograph recordings show that the shockwave from the final explosion reverberated around the globe 7 times in total.[2] Ash was propelled to a height of 80 km (50 mi).<

they hope will give a boost to a green energy sector that has yet to live up to its promise.It's a little early to call something the understatement of the year, however ...

What happens when they pump water into the volcano and strike oil? Would the 'green energy sector' know what to do with it?

I don’t think I have a problem with this.
But I find it hypocritical that an “stimulus” project is called “green” while fracking for oil/gas is not - when both projects are so very similar.
Where is the outrage for the large volume of water that will be required for geothermal?
Where are the people that will be demanding that the heavy metals be removed from the waste stream?
Where are the studies on the additives? Where are the government agencies demanding that the hydroshearing formula be made public?
And by all means, lets give geothermal drilling credit for their thoughtfulness in locating their sites far from population centers, while really sticking it to oil/gas operations in western North Dakota.

24 million gallons of water eh....
just enough to start 24 high productivity fracking oil wells.
