By CNR – ITAE Within GEOFIT project, a novel heat pump will be developed, able to efficiently exploit geothermal energy to provide heat under several climates and conditions. To this aim, a hybrid configuration for a reversible heat pump is being developed: it consists in the coupling of a gas-driven
Here is the first video of Geofit, a video that presents the project and launches, with its premiere, the Geofit video series, which will include interviews, updates on demo sites, and will last until the end of the project. This video presentation of motion graphics explains the context from which
Stakeholder workshop Geothermal Energy and Ground Source Heat Pumps In Austria: ‘The Geofit solution’ Join us for an open panel discussion on the status of geothermal energy in context with ground source heat pumps and how the GEOFIT project is using the latest geo technologies for energy and cost efficient
GEOTHERMAL IDM FOR DRILLING PROCESS (DRILLING WORKS – MODELLING AND VIRTUALIZATION – GEOTHERMAL BIM INTEGRATION VISUALIZATION, MONITORING AND LIFE CYCLE CONTROL) Deliverable by IDP GEOFIT project creates the perfect interaction environment bringing together a set of different disciplines, technologies, knowledge and innovation. One of the main achievements of the project
Control solutions for air-conditioning, refrigeration and heating & energy efficiency Article by Raul Simonetti from CAREL From a control point of view, the energy efficiency opportunities can be grouped into three approaches: 1. Product-level approach 2. System-level approach 3. Supervision and IoT
The Austrian Institute of Technology GmbH together with Groenholland are currently conducting the GEOFIT lab experiments for novel ground source heat exchangers: 4 collector types, 3 soils, 3 temp levels, heat injection/extraction, etc.
BY AVRIL NÍ SHEARCAIGH The Aran Islands pilot site in this project is located on Árainn, the largest of the three Aran Islands on the west coast of Ireland. This pilot’s focus is based on residential buildings. The Killeaney Cottages, pictured below, were selected and invited to participate. Eight of
At the end of January we held two workshops in Ireland linked to two of our pilot sites, one located in Galway and the other in the Aran Islands. These pilot sites have different characteristics and represent different challenges for the demonstration of our project. In this post we will
On January 24th was held at National University of Ireland, Galway, a CPD Event open to the public on Geothermal Energy in Ireland and the solution of the GEOFIT project. The presentation was led by Ric Pasquali, President of the Irish Geothermal Association, and followed by talks on the GEOFIT
