Abstract

The most suitable drilling technology for shallow geothermal applications in a given geological context plays a key role in the techno-economic evaluation of shallow geothermal solutions. The installation costs are one of the main constraints to the wider application of shallow geothermal heat exchangers and are due mainly to the drilling time and fees.
