🌍🔬During the 2024 SIAM Conference on Mathematics of Planet Earth, held last week in Portland OR, Paul Christodoulides from the Cyprus University of Technology presented an assessment of a Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) system placed at the University Municipal Library of Limassol in Cyprus. This facility not only serves as a Municipal University Library, but also as research and education laboratory for evaluating GSHP performance. Through both theoretical and experimental investigations, it is aimed to optimize the system’s efficiency and contribute valuable recommendations for future implementations.

The European Union is pioneering new energy strategies to enhance the energy efficiency of buildings. One standout technology is the Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP), a geothermal system for heating and cooling buildings that is both highly energy efficient and environmentally friendly. These systems, which use ground heat exchangers (GHEs), can meet building energy demands year-round and are controllable via a remote building management system (BMS).

This ongoing project is a testament to our commitment to advancing sustainable energy solutions and fostering a greener future. 🌱🔋
