GSHP systems use consistent geothermal energy below the earth's surface to provide heating and cooling for buildings. Specifically, in constructing smart cities, using energy piles—structures that support buildings and function as a part of GSHP systems—and analyzing the soil thermal dynamics is vital for sustainable urban development.
