At present, there is an increasing interest denoted to utilisation of alternative energy sources. It is expressed especially in the municipal and/or industrial sphere, where energetic sources based on fossil fuels, are step by step eliminated by their different alternatives. A common groundwater, which is utilised in heat pumps for heating of objects, is one of the low-temperature energy sources. Košice is the second largest town in Slovakia and there is a large number of buildings with different pretensions to energy in them.

The submitted paper gives an overview of its utilisation.
