Ground source heat pumps (GSHPs) are a state-of-the-art technology for heating, cooling, and hot water production. They are already common in several countries and represent a promising technology for others. As the technology penetrates the market, the number of ground heat exchangers in densely populated areas may increase significantly. Therefore, it becomes important to consider the thermal influence of neighboring GSHPs while designing these systems in such areas. This question has become more frequent in some Swedish residential areas where the use of GSHPs is very common. This article proposes an easy-to-implement methodology to evaluate the thermal influence between borehole heat exchangers (BHEs) in areas with a high number of GSHPs installed. It also suggests two mitigation strategies to decrease the thermal interference so that the given limit for the ground temperature change is respected. The methodologies proposed are implemented using the programming language Julia and applied to fictional scenarios relevant for Sweden. It is found that neglecting the presence of neighboring systems might lead to an overexploitation of the underground heat. This can be avoided if, during the design phase, the presence of neighboring BHEs is taken into account and mitigation strategies are applied.
