With a little guidance on ground-source heat pump design temperatures and a few rules of thumb for ground loop flow rates, most engineers are pretty comfortable designing the building side of a ground ...

When ASHRAE’s original book on ground source heat pumps was published 17 years ago, such systems were used mainly in residential settings and, according to the association, the designers who used them ...

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 ...

When it comes to lower-energy home heating, it’s accurate in all senses to say that heat pumps are the new hotness. But unless you happen to work with them professionally, it’s fair to say their inner ...

Scientists in China have developed an optimized energy management strategy for a wind-PV hybrid heat pump system that uses both thermal and electric energy storage. Using different seasonal ...

ONTARIO, CA — The Radiant Professionals Alliance (RPA) and International Ground Source Heat Pump Association (IGSHPA) have entered into a memorandum of understanding with the mutual goal of promoting ...

Ground source heat pumps, a small but growing segment of the U.S. heating and cooling sector, could help slash energy demands, boost American manufacturing and stabilize the electric grid as AI-fueled ...

If you're considering using a ground source heat pump to heat your home, you could be wondering what type of ground source heat pump problems you may encounter. Or, perhaps you have one and have a few ...

This story is part of the Hotspots series exploring Colorado's geothermal energy industry by CPR's Climate Solutions Team. Explore the series here. On a frigid afternoon last December, Jim and Hilary ...
