Shallow Geothermal Energy (SGE) systems are emerging as an attractive solution to enhance building energy efficiency and contribute to a low-carbon economy. This research investigates a SGE system comprising 40 boreholes installed in a university building located in Aveiro City under Mediterranean climate conditions. Both the building and the underground soil were monitored during the SGE operation, and EnergyPlus (R) software was subsequently employed for the integrated dynamic simulation. The building energy model was calibrated using field data, and a good agreement between the measured and the simulated temperatures was archived, with a Coefficient of Variance of the Root Mean Square Error (CVRMSE) below 10 %. The case study model performance was analysed and compared to other alternatives. The impact of the climate on the system performance was investigated by analyzing nine Portuguese cities situated in different climate contexts. A sustainability indicator was proposed, and an initial sustainability assessment was conducted. The results emphasize that the SGE system offered advantages compared to other alternative systems, achieving a 55 % reduction in heating and cooling energy consumption, and mitigating climate change by 405.67 ton of CO2 per 25-year lifespan. This study can guide further implementation of sustainable geothermal systems in Mediterranean climates.
