- Additional information
- The research study is part of an EU funded project (Innovative Energy Recovery Strategies in the Urban Water Cycle “INNERS”) with 11 European Partners from academia, industry and local authorities. The study investigated the recovery of geothermal energy using shallow compact heat exchangers under key environment conditions e.g. groundwater fluctuations and infiltration of rainwater in subsurface soil layers. The results enabled an enhanced understanding of the key parameters governing the design of shallow heat recovery systems and led to the design of compact energy recovery systems which were installed in 4 semi-detached houses in the North of UK.
