"able to supply up to a third of the energy needed to heat the 60-odd apartments... consists of ten blue-and-white panels measuring 1.3m x 0.7m and made of a metal... only catch is that the concrete walls on which the panels are installed must be in direct contact with the soil so that the panels can capture the geothermal energy... A heat pump then circulates this energy throughout the building above, providing a constant supply all year long... Also useful for train and subway stations and tunnels"
