Ground Source Energy
Energy storage at Fjell School in Drammen, Norway, using Asplan Viak's GeoTermos technology.
Ground source energy provides efficient heating and cooling through heat pump technology, using a renewable and environmentally friendly energy source. It has become an increasingly popular solution for building owners and plays an important role in delivering energy-efficient, low-carbon buildings.
Asplan Viak offers expertise in both closed-loop borehole systems, groundwater-based energy systems and large-scale thermal energy storage solutions. We support clients throughout the entire project lifecycle, from early-stage feasibility assessments and investigations to detailed design and operational support.
Feasibility and Planning
We assess the suitability and potential of ground source energy by evaluating site conditions, heating and cooling demands, available technologies and economic performance. This provides a reliable basis for investment decisions and project planning.
Borehole Energy Systems
Closed-loop borehole systems are the most common way of utilizing ground source energy and can be adapted to projects of various sizes. Asplan Viak has extensive experience in thermal response testing, energy modelling and the design of borehole fields, ensuring systems are accurately sized for long-term performance and efficiency.
Groundwater Energy Solutions
Where hydrogeological conditions are favourable, groundwater-based heat pump systems can offer highly efficient and cost-effective energy solutions, particularly for medium-sized and large buildings. Our specialists provide hydrogeological investigations, well design, testing and operational advice to ensure reliable system performance.
By combining expertise in geothermal energy, HVAC engineering and energy consulting, Asplan Viak delivers integrated solutions that maximize energy efficiency, reduce operating costs and support sustainable development goals.
