Abstract:On the basis of identifing geological conditions of regional geothermal energy, by using analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method, suitability evaluation of two modes of development and utilization of ground heat in Luxi area has been carried out, such as buried pipe pump and ground source heat pump. According to different categories, development of shallow geothermal energy in Luxi area can be divided into suitable area, relative suitable area and not suitable area. This project will formulate a longterm energy planning, guide the development and utilization of shallow geothermal resources, and promote replacing energy development and utilization in Luxi area.
