A presentation by Iain Howley MD of Ground Source Consult Ltd to the member of The Chartered Institute of Builders (CIOB) on Ground Source Energy System Design.
This presentation discusses ground source energy systems and how Ground Source Consult Ltd designed an innovative single well open loop system for the Kering Group UK Head Office building at 6 Carlos Place in London. The system allows the building to be heated and cooled using a single borehole that both extracts and reinjects groundwater. Through geological analysis, 3D thermal modeling, and the use of an inflatable packer tool, the system was designed to circulate groundwater without thermal interference between the extraction and reinjection zones. The unique system provides over 40% savings on capital costs while allowing for efficient heating and cooling of the building in a sensitive urban location.
This document describes the Geotech Solar Sipper, a groundwater remediation system that uses solar power. The key points are:
1) The Solar Sipper uses a solar panel to power a pump, allowing groundwater remediation without electricity or compressed air.
2) It can recover water, hydrocarbons, and dense non-aqueous phase liquids from monitoring wells.
3) The system has a compact footprint, low maintenance needs, and reduces carbon emissions compared to using grid electricity.
The catalytic-based non-chemical water treatment system dramatically reduced calcite buildup in the pipes and water heater of the Frank E. Moss Federal Courthouse. It required minimal maintenance compared to traditional chemical-based systems. While initial costs may be higher, the system saves money through avoided replacement costs and lacks ongoing chemical and labor fees. It provides immediate payback compared to chemical alternatives and should be considered for deployments with hard water issues.
VEMC offers Containerized Fire System, a pre-packaged pump house, is delivered to site complete with the pumps and with the necessary pipe work, valves, wiring, heating, lighting and drainage, all packaged within in an insulated steel enclosure and mounted on a structural base plate.
Fiberglass Tank Solutions, LLC manufactures large diameter fiberglass wet wells, valve vaults, and rehabilitation inserts for concrete wet wells at their 16,000 square foot facility in Lake Ozark, Missouri. They work with Xerxes to provide packaged fiberglass systems for municipal, industrial, and commercial wastewater applications. Their fiberglass tanks are corrosion resistant and lighter than concrete with integral ribs for strength. They offer customization for tops, bottoms, sidewalls, and accessories.
The document discusses technology development at Statoil, including exploration, reservoir, drilling, production, process upgrading, refining and market technologies. It focuses on remote hot tap technology, which allows connecting a branch pipe to an existing pipeline without shutting it down. Key developments include the first remote hot tap operation in 2008 at 145m depth and the deepest at 860m depth in 2009. Ongoing work involves a remotely welded retrofit tee and internal pressure barrier. The document also discusses the reservoir conformance plate valve, which aims to increase oil production from thin zones and heterogeneous reservoirs by choking gas and water using movable disks based on the Bernoulli principle.
This document summarizes two case studies of solar installations - a solar thermal system and a solar PV system. For the solar thermal system, the summary describes how poor design choices like collector location, pipe routing, and tank sizing led to poor performance. For the solar PV system, the summary outlines the multi-stage process used for simulation, financial analysis, structural review, and obtaining quotes to optimize the system design and ensure project success. The conclusion emphasizes the importance of accurate modeling, component selection, and having a structural review done for solar installations.
An intelligent boiler cleaning system can significantly improve plant profitability by increasing boiler efficiency and reducing operating costs. The document discusses several case studies where intelligent cleaning systems, using sensors and controls to optimize cleaning, increased profits by 30-50% with payback periods of less than 6 months. It also provides guidance on evaluating if a plant is a good candidate for an intelligent cleaning system based on factors like fuel changes, burner retrofits, and slagging issues.

Subsea pipelines the remotely welded retrofit tee for hot tap applications ...Neil Woodward
Over the last 10 years Statoil has developed subsea remote hot tap technology. The first use of the remote hot tap technology was the Tampen Link hot tap in 2008. The hot tap cutting operation itself was performed without the use of divers; however, the preparatory works including hyperbaric welding of the hot tap tee was performed with saturation divers. The world’s deepest hot tap operations on a pressurized pipeline were performed on the Ormen Lange field in the Norwegian Sea in August 2009. Two Hot Taps were conducted in a water depth of 860 meters on pre-installed tees. The development of the Pipeline Repair System Remote Hot Tap equipment is the result of targeted research and development effort and extensive qualification work over many years. The Retrofit Tee remote installation, welding and cutting equipment has now been employed as part of a production installation: the Åsgard Subsea Compression project to extend the Åsgard gas-field lifetime.
This paper describes the dry hyperbaric GMA weld procedure development and qualification performed in the laboratory, using the Corrosion Resistant Alloy consumable filler material Alloy 59, for the Remote Hot Tapping application using the Retrofit Tee. Specific attention was paid to areas of concern prior to performing the formal Weld Procedure Qualification work, particularly with regard to the effects of moisture and temperature upon the resultant weld quality. Weld procedures developed in the laboratory were successfully tested subsea in representative environments using the Remote Tee Welding Tool (RTWT) equipment in the Sognefjord, Norway, with offshore tests performed at 265 and 350msw in 2011. Further tests were performed in 2012 at 265msw and in the Retrofit Tee itself at 316msw in the Nedstrandfjord.
The hyperbaric GMA weld procedures have now been applied for the production application for the Åsgard Subsea Compression project, with the installation of a Retrofit Tee, associated valve module and gooseneck spool to enable a cost-effective modification to the existing pipeline network without interfering with ongoing production. The Retrofit Tee will be connected with a Subsea Compressor station to extend the gas-field lifetime.
This milestone represents the world’s first application of diverless dry hyperbaric GMA welding for a subsea production application.

Introducing nereus for cooling 09112014 gn (2)damiendasher
This document discusses water efficiency and treatment for chillers, data centers, and hospitals. It notes that current water practices are unsustainable given drought conditions, and that traditional water treatment focuses more on product sales than efficiency. A new approach called Nereus uses online monitoring of water chemistry and system performance to optimize cycles of concentration, minimize water and chemical use, reduce scaling and corrosion, and lower energy costs. Implementing this approach could save over 1 billion gallons per year across industries that rely on water-cooled chillers.
Thermal bridging can greatly impact the thermal performance of building envelopes. This presentation discusses research from ASHRAE RP-1365 that quantified thermal bridging in common construction details using 3D modeling. It found that accounting for thermal bridges can decrease a wall's effective R-value by over 30%. The presentation also showed that improving details like slab edges and balcony connections through methods like insulation and thermal breaks provided significant energy savings compared to simply adding clear wall insulation. Overall, the research demonstrates the importance of considering thermal bridging when assessing building envelope performance and codes.

Net Zero Energy in Very Cold Climates by Peter AmerongenMBHomeBuilders
This document discusses designing and building net zero energy homes in very cold climates. Key points include:
- Aggressive energy conservation through a well-insulated building envelope is critical to achieving net zero, as it is nearly impossible without it.
- Modeling the home's energy performance is important to optimize the design and minimize costs. This includes evaluating insulation levels, passive solar gain, and mechanical systems.
- Windows are a major source of heat loss, so selecting high-performance windows is important for the design.
This document discusses the potential for smart 5G heat networks to reduce costs and carbon emissions compared to traditional heat networks. It summarizes a demonstration project that found smart networks could reduce required installation capacity by up to 50% through load shifting and optimized control. However, sizing standards are still an issue and overestimate hot water loads. The project concluded smart controls worked as expected and could lower operating costs. Next steps proposed include developing an open operating platform and national sizing standards based on primary data to advance smart heat networks.
The workshop provided information on home heating technologies including solar thermal and geothermal systems. For solar thermal, it discussed the differences between flat plate and evacuated tube collectors and provided case studies showing returns on investment of 16.7-23.7% for domestic hot water and pool heating systems. For geothermal, it outlined the types of systems and discussed installation considerations and costs, noting that while upfront costs are higher, operating costs are reduced by 66% compared to gas systems. A case study compared typical system costs to a geothermal heat pump system.
Tipperary Energy Agency has launched a pilot funding project that aims to deliver a deep retrofit for homes funded with a repayable loan and significant capital discounts. The project aims to move away from shallow retrofit and test applications of whole house retrofit focusing on cost effective solutions. This type of retrofit is designed to significantly decrease Ireland’s carbon emissions from the domestic sector and is critical to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases.

represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.
Understanding Inductive Bias in Machine LearningSUTEJAS
This presentation explores the concept of inductive bias in machine learning. It explains how algorithms come with built-in assumptions and preferences that guide the learning process. You'll learn about the different types of inductive bias and how they can impact the performance and generalizability of machine learning models.
The presentation also covers the positive and negative aspects of inductive bias, along with strategies for mitigating potential drawbacks. We'll explore examples of how bias manifests in algorithms like neural networks and decision trees.
By understanding inductive bias, you can gain valuable insights into how machine learning models work and make informed decisions when building and deploying them.
Electric vehicle and photovoltaic advanced roles in enhancing the financial p...IJECEIAES
Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network
Comparative analysis between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquapon...bijceesjournal
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.

11. HORIZONTAL CLOSED LOOP – OFTEN KNOWN AS ‘SLINKY’S
Used typically for domestic sites or can be used to serve larger projects
such as schools where large area’s of land are available.
A 50m slinky row typically services around 3-4kW of heating load
12. FOUNDATION PILES Piles only offer limited heat
exchange capacity because they
are usually shallow & in London
generally drilled into low TC clay
In our opinion, not enough
research has been initiated into
how heating and cooling via piles
affects the pile itself
Free Drilling ? Cheap as Chips ?
No its not ! There are wider
reaching implications for a piled
system verses other ground
coupled techniques such as
impact on build programme
13. POND, LAKE, RIVER or OCEAN CLOSED LOOP
Coiled pipe or SS plates are
submerged in the water and using
an existing lake or river can be a
very cost effective heat exchanger
system
Any development considering a
water feature should perhaps keep
in mind the potential to use it as a
source for heat exchange
Used anywhere where a body of
water is available. Can service
both small and large systems
depending on size of lake and
through-flow of water
17. If you need more energy, you just need a bigger pipe or a larger cable
The Ground Source Energy Concept – Why is this important?
18. Why is ground source heat different from traditional resources?
• The ground is not an infinite resource
• You are replacing or reducing dependency on these
with a Ground Heat Exchanger
19. Why is this not an infinite resource?
Imagine the ground heat exchanger as a Battery on Trickle Charge
The Ground Source Energy Concept
20. Can the battery go flat?
When we hook a building up to a ground heat exchanger, if the
“battery” isn’t man enough for the job, the battery could go flat.
To ensure this “battery” is sized correctly, the ground loop
needs be properly designed by somebody who knows what they
are doing.
21. What if you get it wrong?
You don’t want to over-
stress the ground.
The Ground Source Energy Concept
22. Who’s Designing your system ?
Certified GeoExchange Designer ?? Or Somebody who has downloaded the software ?
23. The Ground Source “Lottery” – Poor Approach
• 50 watts per metre gives a 7,000 m loop field;
• Divide 7,000 m by 100 (a nice round number) to give 70
boreholes;
• Arrange the boreholes 5 m apart because it says so on the
internet;
• Arrange the boreholes in a square because it looks tidy on the
drawings;
Office Building:
• 350 kW peak Cooling
• 150 kW peak Heating
24. • Assess actual peak loads and annual loads;
• Investigate the feasibility and “drillability” in outline
design work;
• Undertake thermal analysis with in-situ thermal testing;
• Determine a detailed load profile and specify heat pump;
• Develop detailed design and establish system
optimisation;
• Produce a transparent and detailed specification; and
• Experienced drilling engineers supervise the installation
throughout.
Ground Source Design – The Right Approach !
To avoid playing the ground source lottery altogether, you
need the following to be building and site specific:
Office Building:
• 350 kW peak Cooling
• 150 kW peak Heating
25. Getting it wrong !!
Drilling the
borefield to the
previous spec
would have
worked. But it
would have
needlessly cost
an extra £175k.
CGD reduced
borefield by
3,000m !!
Over
10,000m of
drilling in this
proposal !!

Poor borehole spacing results in more boreholes being required due to interference effects.
At £3,000 - £4,000 per borehole, this increases the costs significantly.

200 MWh annually
Greater Load Imbalance: increase annual cooling load to 350 MWh
28. Example Two: poor design on our office – when will this system fail?

After 5 years, it
would still just
about be working
at 35°C but
efficiency would
be unacceptably
low
But after 7 years
the system is close
to total failure.
29. Correct Design:
our typical single home would require
a 53.4 m deep borehole.
Social housing
Interference effects:
However, with 6 terraces in a row we have 6 m spacing between boreholes
(one in each front garden). Interference effects increases the required borehole
length to 66.2 m per household if correctly designed.
Poor design, resulting in reduced spacing between boreholes will increase the
interference effect.
Furthermore, without thermally enhanced grout and having used incorrect pipe
diameter the required effective length increases again to 85.3 m.
36. Other Issues and Licensing
Environment Agency:
• Protect existing users;
• Abstraction licence; and Risk Assessment
• Discharge consent.
Other issues:
• Biofouling; and
• Sand ingress.
From initial feasibility report to
handover of working system
typically takes at least 15 months
37. System Design and Risk Assessment using FEFLOW
• Finite-element simulation software;
• 2D and 3D Simulations;
• Dynamic modelling of groundwater flow and heat
transport
Used to simulate the groundwater flow regime and
heat transport resulting from the operation of open
loop ground source heat pump systems.
