If these pumps use underground warmth, how can it be used for cooling a building in the summer? That said, what many people find confusing is how a technology focused on using warmth from the ground is also able to keep a building cool. The key is in knowing that there are several different types of geothermal heat pumps.

Liquid Air Energy Storage (LAES) uses electricity to cool air until it liquefies, so it can be stored until an opportune moment arrives when it can be brought back to a gaseous state and used for power generation. This is achieved by compressing the air to form a high-pressure gas, the air is then cooled by heat exchange with a cold fluid.
