Aquifer thermal energy storage (ATES) plays an important role in energy supply, which is renewable energy storage. Based on the data related to geological information of aquifer in Amsterdam, this paper proposes a characteristic analysis of the ATES. Results indicate that the ATES will produce less carbon dioxide than traditional heating and cooling systems, and it will reduce more system cost. Meanwhile, different architectural design will affect the efficiency of ATES and environment problem and so on. Generally, a more comprehensive design of ATES is necessary, which provided more valuable ideas for the process design of the ATES. Then the best condition of the distance design in the ATES can be chosen.
