Thermal sustainability of low-temperature geothermal energy systems: System interactions and environmental impacts.
In storing heat during summer for use in winter, the ground provides a better source/sink of heat than the outside air in regards to heat pump efficiency, being cooler than the outside air in the summer and warmer in the winter. Due to their good efficiency, the use of geothermal energy is often …
