Breakthrough May Yield Smarter, Greener Heat Pumps

In my last blog post, that focused on World Refrigeration Day, I touched briefly on the work of researchers at Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). The research, from EPTL’s Soil Mechanics Laboratory, related to using a geothermal heat recovery system to capture the heat in subway tunnels. That energy could then be used to heat and cool nearby homes.
