Kaitlyn O’Sullivan, Emily Terpstra, Emma Grindall, and Anastasiya Mihaylova
Fourth-Year Project Group from Geological Engineering on Geothermal Greenhouse Design in the North
Graduated in 2021 from Geological Engineering at Waterloo
This University of Waterloo Fourth Year Design Project was completed in April 2021, and presented at the second Canadian Geothermal Students Days Conference in June 2021. The goal of this Conference is to provide a platform for students, (undergraduate to PhD level) to share their research concerning geothermal topics. This year’s theme was Geothermal Use in Northern Communities.

Prof. Claudio Canizares
Dr. Claudio Canizares, a world-renowned researcher, is a Professor and the Hydro One Endowed Chair at the Electrical and Computer Engineering (E&CE) Department of the University of Waterloo. He is an expert on remote microgrids and has collaborated with Canadian Solar for the deployment of this technology in the Northern Communities of Canada. In the past, Dr. Canizares has worked with the Kasabonika Lake First Nation (KLFN) community in Northern Ontario, where a one-year measuring campaign…
Computer simulations of building energy efficiency are an important tool in the design of low-energy buildings. They are used to predict annual energy consumption, determine peak loads for sizing equipment, complete cost-payback analysis to select appropriate energy efficiency measures, and show compliance with standards. However, current models are too technical to be used by architects and too complex for early design, thus limiting design methods and applications.
