Abstract
An index which relates groundwater heat-potential to heat-demand is introduced here. This index allows us to quantify the share that thermal 'waste energy' from groundwater resources could have to satisfy heat-demand. On the one hand, we demonstrate how the spatial distribution of this index can be derived for the urban area of Basel, Switzerland. On the other hand, we exemplify the temporal evolution of the heat-potential for selected urban areas and discuss the capacity for space heating with a typical annual heat-demand profile.
