Underground Thermal Energy Storage

<p>Underground thermal energy storage (UTES) provide us with a flexible tool to combat global warming through conserving energy while utilizing natural renewable energy resources. Primarily, they act as a buffer to balance fluctuations in supply and demand of low temperature thermal energy. <i>Underground Thermal Energy Storage </i>provides an comprehensive introduction to the extensively-used energy storage method.</p><p> </p><p><i>Underground Thermal Energy Storage</i> gives a general overview of UTES from basic concepts and classifications to operation regimes. As well as discussing general procedures for design and construction, thermo-hydro geological modeling of UTES systems is explained. Finally, current real life data and statistics are include to summarize major global developments in UTES over the past decades.</p><p> </p><p>The concise style and thorough coverage makes <i>Underground Thermal Energy Storage</i> a solid introduction for students, engineers and geologists alike.</p>
