design of the thermal activation of the structural works of the new HUB of services under construction in the Ex-Zuffo area of Trento. It consists in the thermal activation of the foundation and the application of the GeothermSkin system to the walls against the ground. This building is part of the project ARV – Climate Positive Circular Communities.

Thermal activation of lines 15 West and 15 East in Paris
Prefeasibility study of the geothermal activation of the 15 West and 15 East lines, part of the Grand Paris Express project, with the proposed activation of TBM sections through Enertun methodology and activation of buildings along the line (stations and shafts) through energy diaphragm walls. The results obtained demonstrated the possibility of exploiting geothermal energy for heating and cooling of buildings.

Design of the geothermal system for the Turin Metro Line 2
Design of the thermal activation of the new Line 2 of the Turin Metro. The activation included precast tunnel segmets, diaphragm walls. Numerical finite element models were created that could reproduce the geometrical, geological and geothermal characteristics of the system for each homogeneous zone. The support service was also provided for the preparation of detailed graphic drawings, the preparation of price analysis for the energy.

Thermal activation of line 15 West tunnels Grand Paris Express
Pre-feasibility study of the geothermal activation of the Line 15 West, part of the Grand Paris Express project. The thermal power that can be exchanged with the ground during winter and summer through the geothermal activation of the tunnel lining was calculated by using the simplified method developed by Di Donna and Barla (2016) and Insana and Barla (2020). The results obtained have demonstrated the possibility of using LN15O tunnels for heating and cooling purposes.

Geothermal activation of the Turin Metro line 2 feasibility study
Study of the geothermal potential deriving from the activation of the structural elements of the new Torino Metro Line 2. It was used a specific class parametrization methodology (5 parameters that describe the thermo-hydro-geological conditions of the Torino subsoil), developed by Geosolving, to divide into homogeneous sections. For each section a specific thermo-hydraulic finite elements numerical model has been realized.

Feasibility study on the geothermal activation of a slab foundation
The activity was finalized to quantify in a preliminary way the thermal power obtainable through the geothermal activation of a slab foundation of a new building currently ongoing project. A thermo-hydraulic finite elements model was adopted to reproduce the concrete foundation slab and the surrounding soil. The numerical results showed the feasibilty of the structures activation and a good amount of thermal power which can be extracted from the soil.
