I haven't ever looked into it, but I often wonder how many w/m^2 the ground can absorb in steady state. Almost every system I have seen was under-sized, because eventually the volume of earth your pipes are running through is overwhelmed by the lack of flux into the surrounding environment. At least I think that was the problem. The may have also just skimped on the heat pump.
