“…Such systems are based on single or multiple boreholes, depending on heat demand that needs to be supplied. The main advantage of this system, compare GSHP efficiency is highly dependent on local geological and hydrogeological conditions, so identifying the natural conditions is crucial for their proper design and operation [19,20]. The GWHP system uses the pumped groundwater directly in the heat exchanger [8].…”

Shallow geothermal energy (SGE) is a renewable energy that could contribute to the decarbonatization of the heating and cooling sector. SGE is predominantly harnessed through ground source heat pump (GSHP) systems. The choice of which type of GSHP system depends on various factors. Understanding these factors is crucial for optimizing the efficiency of GSHP systems and fostering their implementation. In this paper, we have analysed the spatial distribution of GSHPs in Slovenia. We identified 1073 groundwater and 1122 ground-coupled heat pump systems with a total heat pump capacity of almost 30 MW. We quantitatively assessed the influence of geological, hydrogeological, and climate conditions on their spatial distribution. Using the χ2 test and information value method, we identified hydrogeological conditions as the most influential factor for the GSHP systems’ spatial distribution. We also performed the spatial analysis of geological and hydrogeological data in 22 European countries, including Slovenia. We collected the reported numbers of installed GSHP units in 2020 and were able to distinguish the shares of groundwater and ground-coupled heat pump systems for 12 of these countries. The analysis showed that ground-coupled heat pumps predominate in most countries, even if the natural conditions are favourable for groundwater heat pumps.

“…The internal energy in low-enthalpy geothermal systems is insufficient to produce electricity. Low-enthalpy geothermal systems, however, are accessible with less expensive and sophisticated technology because they are located closer to the surface [18]. As a result, they constitute a thermal reservoir that is exceptionally valuable for both heating and cooling.…”
