L'article est l'unité élémentaire et fondamentale de la loi. Aussi convient-il d’éviter de le fragmenter en sous-unités inférieures au paragraphe, le recours aux alinéas et, à la rigueur, aux sous-alinéas devant se limiter aux cas de véritable énumération verticale, où cette présentation permet une meilleure appréhension d’éléments placés sur le même plan. 2, record 1, French, - alin%C3%A9a

Si la géothermie haute énergie(exemple de Bouillante en Guadeloupe) repose sur l'exploitation de l'eau chaude souterraine, la géothermie profonde utilise la chaleur emmagasinée dans des formations rocheuses peu perméables qui, en l'absence d’eau, est difficile à capter. Il s’agit alors de créer artificiellement des réservoirs géothermiques en profondeur. La technique? Fragmenter en profondeur des roches chaudes par injection d’eau sous pression et créer un échangeur thermique profond via le forage de plusieurs puits. Une boucle est alors établie et l'eau, réchauffée au contact des roches chaudes, cède son énergie à une unité de surface produisant de l'électricité, via une turbine. 2, record 2, French, - g%C3%A9othermie%20profonde
