Demand for renewable energy sources has increased significantly during the past 15-20years. Due to this demand, one positive scenario has occurred as there has been a decrease in the use of fossil fuels. Among various usages of the fuels, a significant amount of energy is being used in heating and cooling for commercial, domestic houses, etc. Traditional air conditioning systems use a lot of energy and are particularly inefficient in tropical countries. Earth-air heat exchanger (EAHE) systems can help to reduce the air conditioning demand while also promoting the development of renewable energy. This paper focuses on a review of previous research on this notion for system installation done by earlier researchers. Researchers working on efficient heating and cooling for human comfort will benefit from this review article. The researchers working on EAHE for heating and cooling will benefit from this review paper because it will give them the basic knowledge they need to begin their experimental work.
