Icaza, "Geothermal and Solar Energy Applied to Air Conditioning and Electricity Generation for Homes: Case study Baños in Cuenca-Ecuador," 2022 10th International Conference on Smart Grid (icSmartGrid), 2022, pp. 407-413, doi: 10.1109/icSmartGrid55722.2022.9848548.19B-2022-TER1https://dspace.ucacue.edu.ec/handle/ucacue/12789Geothermal energy has not been fully exploited in the Ecuadorian context because there are not many studies in this area. This renewable energy presents as a good alternative due its low operative-maintenance cost, and continuous operation. This work describes the main features of geothermal energy and its residential applications. In Ecuador, the Ministry of Electricity and Renewable Energy has identified regions with geothermic potential for electricity generation and acclimatization, this document presents an appliance for replacing geothermal heating instead traditional electric heaters in a chicken farm. An economic analysis was performed proving the profitability of this project.application/pdfenginfo:eu-repo/semantics/embargoedAccessGeothermal energy ,renewable energy,volcanic heat,heat demand,solar panelPaneles fotovoltaicos móviles en el Tranvía de Cuencainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article10.1109/icSmartGrid55722.2022.9848548IEEE Xplore
