As cold temperatures affect much of the United States, more people are looking into highly efficient heat pumps to save money on utility bills and reduce household energy waste. According to the ...

Heat pumps are often talked about as a single technology type, but in practice, there are two main systems used in UK homes: air source and ground source. Both systems work on the same principle, ...

Researchers in South Korea have analyzed the feasibility of using thermoelectric generators in combination with residential solar-assisted ground-source heat pumps and have found that the ...

Researchers showed in a new study that GSHP systems, particularly when integrated with energy piles, offer a sustainable solution for urban development in Southeast Asia. As energy and environmental ...

Researchers in Sweden sought to raise the efficiency of ground source heat pumps by combining their operation with that of PVT systems and free cooling. Through a series of simulations, they found ...

The energy pile system consists of four main elements: the geostructure, the embedded heat exchanger, the heat pump unit, and the distribution system. Human civilization is currently evolving at an ...

Around 36,000 schools in the U.S. are in need of updated heating and cooling systems, according to the Government Accountability Office. Many students are trying to learn in environments that are too ...

IN THIS MONTH'S column we will begin looking at ground source heat pumps as a means of providing efficient heating and cooling to buildings of all shapes and sizes. Ground source heat pumps (GSHP) ...
