We worked with @Cenergist & @BritGeoSurvey on the design of the two closed-loop GSHP borehole arrays for these installations at Keyworth. The arrays have been designed to deliver long-term sustainable ambient energy from the ground, whilst minimising parasitic pumping energy.
Congratulations to @BritGeoSurvey for breaking ground on their GSHP project at the headquarters in Keyworth. The system will deliver low-carbon heat to the buildings and also serve as a 'living laboratory'. @NERCscience @SalixFinance @Cenergistic
