Swedish term or phrase: akviferlager
I know "Akviferlager" as being "Geothermal Energy" *-- but I am not certain that it isn't more specific than that.

So I was wondering if anyone expert in the field of alternative energy could comment.


(* As in "the production of heating from Geothermal Energy sources")

I'll change to this one, but are you working on a larger facility or for single home?

Some interesting reading and terms that might help otherwise.

agree  Kristian Andersson: "Aktiv geoenergi finns som borrhålslager, BTES, samt akviferlager, ATES. Dessa system används i storskaliga projekt och är effektivare än passiva system." http://www.diva-portal.org/smash/get/diva2:632285/FULLTEXT01...
