1. A method for modeling a geothermal installation for the thermal regulation of at least one building, wherein, by means of a computing unit, the following steps are implemented:
S1: Modeling of a geothermal potential of one area of interest comprising a subsoil area comprised in a given perimeter around the building;
S2: Estimation of the thermal needs of the building so as to identify a dimensioning parameter representing the maximum value of the required power (Pbat) to maintain the building to heating or cooling setpoint temperature of the building;
S3: Generation of a plurality of models of geothermal installations according to the results of S1 and S2, a model of geothermal installation comprising one or several geothermal solutions configured so as to meet the needs estimated in step S2 according to the area of interest modeled in step S1;
S4: Application of a selection criterion configured to determine a preferential model, step S4 comprising a step of calculating a complexity index S41 associated with each model of geothermal installation of the plurality of models of geothermal installation, and a ranking step S42 configured to classify the plurality of models of geothermal installation according to their respective complexity index; wherein step S1 is carried out so as to obtain a three-dimensional geological map of the geological nature of the subsoil by executing the following sub-steps:
S11: Interpolation of a geological surface map with geological cross-sections performed occasionally, so as to statistically associate a subsoil profile with a type of geological surface;
S12: Modeling of the subsoil in a given perimeter around the building according to the surface, from the statistical associations obtained in step S11;
a model of geothermal installation thus selected being intended to be used for making a geothermal installation.
