2. Ground source heat pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_source_heat_pump

   A ground source heat pump (also geothermal heat pump) is a heating/cooling system for buildings that use a type of heat pump to transfer heat to or from the ground, taking advantage of the relative constancy of temperatures of the earth through the seasons. Ground-source heat pumps (GSHPs) – or geothermal heat pumps (GHP), as they are ...

   Efficient Heating and Cooling Systems. When it comes to mechanical heating and cooling systems, Toyin-Ann advocates for energy-efficient options like heat pumps, which transfer heat between the ...

4. Low-energy house - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-energy_house

   Traditional heating and active cooling systems are absent, or their use is secondary. [1] [2] Low-energy buildings may be viewed as examples of sustainable architecture. Low-energy houses often have active and passive solar building design and components, which reduce the house's energy consumption and minimally impact the resident's lifestyle ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating,_ventilation,_and...

   Some systems with small storages are hybrids, using free cooling early in the cooling season, and later employing a heat pump to chill the circulation coming from the storage. The heat pump is added-in because the storage acts as a heat sink when the system is in cooling (as opposed to charging) mode, causing the temperature to gradually ...

6. Aquifer thermal energy storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquifer_thermal_energy_storage

   An ATES system uses the aquifer to buffer seasonal reversals in heating and cooling demand. ATES can serve as a cost-effective technology to replace fossil fuel-dependent systems and associated CO 2 emissions. ATES can contribute significantly to emission reductions, as buildings consume some 40% of global energy, mainly for heating and cooling ...
