Creating sustainable cooling in southeast Asia using ground source heat pump systems - EurekAlert


The efficiency of ground source heat pump (GSHP) systems in temperate climates has been extensively studied. Yet, their efficiency in tropical regions remains unclear. Now, scientists from Shibaura Institute of Technology examined the optimization of GSHP systems and energy piles for sustainable urban development in Southeast Asia. The results indicate that integrating GSHP systems with energy piles decreases electricity consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, offering engineers and urban planners insights into building smart cities.
