GSHP in a suburban setting - a case study
In the following scenario an early adopter installs a Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) and initially enjoys uncontended use of the sensible heat contained within a hemispherical volume beneath her - and her neighbours' properties. Later, under a policy of mass adoption of GSHP technology, all the surrounding properties are competing for the same heat and the effective source volume is bounded by the area of property, straight down.
