Ground-Source Bridge Deck Deicing and Integrated Shallow Geothermal Energy Harvesting Systems
Shallow geothermal energy (SGE) systems are becoming increasingly popular due to both their environmental and economic value. By using the ground as a source and sink for thermal energy, SGE systems are able to more efficiently heat and cool structures. However, their utility beyond structural …

Shallow geothermal energy: effect of in-situ conditions on borehole heat exchanger design and performance
The in-situ conditions are critical for the performance of Borehole Heat Exchangers (BHEs). However, in practice they are often not adequately considered, overwhelming the potential of these systems. This thesis focuses on the accurate estimation of the in-situ characteristics and on their …

A Spatial Decision Support System for thermal energy planning at the regional scale
… Ph.D. dissertation is on the thermal part of the energy planning issue since the space conditioning (heating and cooling – H&C) of buildings represents about 75% of the energy consumed by European residential buildings and only 16% of the heating and cooling consumption is covered by renewable …
