Purpose

The purpose of the dataset is to support the development, planning and implementation of subsurface heat storage as a flexible energy solution. The dataset contributes to improved understanding of thermal storage processes, optimisation of system design and operation, and reduction of technical, hydrogeological and geological risks related to large-scale heat storage.

Other constraints

The dataset is based on compilation and scientific assessment of geological, hydrogeological, geochemical and modelled data from the HEATSTORE project. The dataset may be used with appropriate attribution. It represents project-based and site-specific assessments of subsurface heat storage and is not sufficient as a stand-alone basis for local project design, regulatory approval or final dimensioning of specific heat storage installations.

Supplemental Information

The dataset was produced as part of the HEATSTORE project’s work on underground thermal energy storage. It represents project-based assessments and model results for subsurface heat storage and should be used as a scientific and strategic decision-support dataset. Local heat storage projects require additional site-specific investigations, including detailed hydrogeological characterisation, assessment of temperature conditions, geochemical effects, groundwater impacts and relevant regulatory requirements.

Statement

The dataset has been developed through integration and processing of geological, hydrogeological and geochemical data from demonstration sites within the HEATSTORE project. The data basis includes well data, temperature measurements, pumping tests and geophysical investigations, which have been used for numerical modelling of heat injection and subsurface heat storage. Data have been quality assured through the project’s cross-institutional collaboration and used to assess storage efficiency, thermal impacts, hydraulic conditions, geochemical processes and long-term performance of underground thermal energy storage systems.
