Опубликована: Янв. 9, 2025

This paper explores the innovative application of Geographic Information Systems (GISs) to identify and utilize waste heat sources from railway highway tunnels for fifth-generation district heating cooling (5GDHC) systems. Increasing number prosumers—entities that produce consume energy—within 5GDHC networks enhances their efficiency sustainability. While potential vary widely, this study focuses on underground car/railway tunnels, which typically have a temperature range 20 °C 40 °C. Using GIS software, we comprehensively analyzed tunnel locations as in Belgium. incorporates data various sources, including OpenStreetMap European Waste Heat Map, applies two-dimensional transfer model estimate recovery potential. The results indicate especially southern regions Belgium, show significant promise recovery, potentially contributing between 0.8 2.9 GWh annually. integration blockchain technology peer-to-peer energy exchange within systems is also discussed, highlighting its enhance management billing. research contributes growing body knowledge sustainable presents novel approach leveraging existing infrastructure.

A perspective on Paul Younger’s work on the Newcastle Science Central Deep Geothermal Borehole and new developments from the NetZero GeoRDIE project

Опубликована: Фев. 14, 2025

Paul Younger, to whose memory this issue is dedicated, was an early advocate of a geothermal energy renaissance in the north England. This paper offers background experience gained with Eastgate BH1 and BH2B boreholes, focused on exploring potential Weardale Granite, followed by what has subsequently become known as Newcastle Science Central Deep Geothermal Borehole (NSCDGB), which found sequence (presumed) Fell Sandstones. These efforts represent not only legacy piece infrastructure UK, but also Younger. While NSCDGB been developed using conventional methods, it proved invaluable providing data modelling test-bed for northern England hoped that future years can serve testing facility deep research. Research carried out part recently concluded NetZero GeoRDIE confirmed could still be converted Heat Exchanger (DBHE), indicative total continuous heat yield >50 kW lifetime 25 if repurposed c.920 m depth.
