About the event
Shallow geothermal borefields require a significant upfront investment, making accurate design essential. But what does good design look like in practice? What data do we need, and where can we find it?
In this webinar, Wouter Peere will explore the practicalities of designing geothermal borefields. He will highlight the benefits of geothermal heat pump systems, with a focus on the Australian context, explain the key physical principles behind borefield operation, and walk through the different steps of the design process. Whether you're an engineer, designer or driller, you'll come away with the knowledge, resources, and tools to start designing efficient geothermal borefields yourself.
