Near-surface geothermal energy for a pleasant climate

via 38 geothermal probes with a depth of 210m and a total length of approx. 8km. This enables passive cooling, which maximises the efficiency of the hall's temperature control in summer. In total, the geothermal system provides around 300 kW of heating capacity or 585 MWh of heating energy and 200 kW of cooling capacity or 160 MWH of cooling energy.

What ultimately counts in the construction business is successfully completed projects. PORR has many of these.
