An international research team has developed and tested a hybrid energy system combining photovoltaic-thermal collectors, ...

The future is bright for a little known yet highly efficient method of heating and cooling, a new report by the U.S. Department of Energy concludes. Ground source heat pumps could heat and cool the ...

Heat pumps are often talked about as a single technology type, but in practice, there are two main systems used in UK homes: air source and ground source. Both systems work on the same principle, ...

If you're considering using a ground source heat pump to heat your home, you could be wondering what type of ground source heat pump problems you may encounter. Or, perhaps you have one and have a few ...

Researchers in Italy have designed a novel carbon dioxide heat pump that can work with photovoltaic-thermal energy, a finned coil heat exchanger and a U-tube borehole heat exchanger. Their experiment ...
