Abstract
This study investigates the impact of climate change and intense urbanization on Low-Temperature Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage (LT-ATES) systems. A synthetic groundwater model was developed to consider transient thermal boundary conditions due to climate change, urbanization, and evolving building thermal demands. Four scenarios were analyzed, showing potentially significant influences on subsurface thermal conditions, leading to distinct aquifer temperature profiles. The results for conditions with strong ground heat gain indicate pronounced subsurface warming and imbalanced thermal plume extensions and decreasing ATES performance over time. Recommendations include incorporating realistic surface boundary conditions in ATES modeling and strategies to mitigate adverse thermal impacts from urbanization.
期刊介绍：
Geothermics is an international journal devoted to the research and development of geothermal energy. The International Board of Editors of Geothermics, which comprises specialists in the various aspects of geothermal resources, exploration and development, guarantees the balanced, comprehensive view of scientific and technological developments in this promising energy field.
It promulgates the state of the art and science of geothermal energy, its exploration and exploitation through a regular exchange of information from all parts of the world. The journal publishes articles dealing with the theory, exploration techniques and all aspects of the utilization of geothermal resources. Geothermics serves as the scientific house, or exchange medium, through which the growing community of geothermal specialists can provide and receive information.
