This position paper was developed by members of the task force on “Energy Geostructures” of the International Society of Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE) Technical Committee TC308 on ‘Energy Geotechnics’. The article includes a summary and review of some of the most recent analysis approaches, in situ testing, full scale testing and model scale experiments with a focus on energy piles and other energy geostructures. The geotechnics literature in these topics has increased rapidly in the last five years suggesting a surge in this emerging research area. Here complementary lines of research can be distinguished, one focusing on thermal analysis and another focusing on thermo-geomechanical analysis. Limitations, shortcomings and knowledge gaps are identified and needs for further research and development within the geotechnical community are highlighted.

该立场文件是由国际土壤力学与岩土工程学会（ISSMGE）“能源岩土工程”技术委员会TC308的“能源岩土结构”工作组的成员制定的。本文包括对一些最新分析方法的总结和回顾，这些方法包括原位测试，全面测试和模型规模实验，重点是能量堆和其他能量地球结构。在过去的五年中，有关这些主题的岩土工程文献迅速增加，这表明该新兴研究领域正在激增。在这里，可以区分互补的研究方向，一个侧重于热分析，另一个侧重于热地质力学分析。局限性
