Data infrastructure for thermal infrastructure.
A thermal network, fully instrumented, analyzed, and understood.
A 36-building mixed-use network with three geothermal borefields and hourly performance data across a full year. The network itself is a simulation; the analytical framework on top of it is what we apply to real projects.

What this shows.
01
Network topology.
The circular diagram maps the physical layout: three borefields, a circulation pump, and 36 buildings sharing a single ambient-temperature loop. Colors indicate whether each building is in heating or cooling mode at the selected hour, with detail available on hover. It's the operational view an owner or operator can use to get a read on what the network is doing at a given moment.
02
Performance comparison.
The second view runs the thermal network against an equivalent set of individual air-source heat pumps, hour by hour, across the full year. A comparison like this sits close to the center of the economic case for a TEN, and it's the sort of analysis that gives an owner, a utility, or a reviewer something concrete to evaluate.
03
Asset economics.
The third view breaks the network down by borefield: how much heating and cooling each one delivers, what it costs to deliver that thermal service (levelized cost of thermal), and how the annual savings stack across energy, demand, and capacity. It gives an owner a way to see which parts of the infrastructure are doing which parts of the work.
If you're evaluating a thermal network and would find this kind of analysis useful for a real project, we'd be glad to talk through what that might look like.
