Near-surface Geothermal Energy
In the field of near-surface geothermal energy, we can assist you in planning and implementation of both closed and open-loop systems. We offer all geological and hydrogeological services for the successful implementation of geothermal heating and cooling in your buildings.
Based on previously conducted geothermal simulations and tests, we plan and optimise your systems and then supervise their installation. Optionally, we monitor the operation of your completed plant and work on the continuous optimisation of the system.
