Geothermal energy comes from the consistent temperature that exists in the ground below us. This energy can generate a clean and sustainable source of heating and cooling. Geothermal energy exists under our feet and can be harnessed to heat and cool buildings, schools and even entire towns. Additionally, geothermal energy can be used in specialized
Geothermal A Steady Flow of Energy Geothermal heat pump systems utilize the earth’s constant underground temperature to efficiently cool and heat buildings. Specifically, geothermal systems use a network of underground piping that circulates heat exchange fluid to reject or extract thermal energy to and from the earth. During the summer months, this heat exchange fluid
It’s time to convert potential geothermal system liabilities into assets. Do you have borefields operating outside of design parameters? Comprehensive monitoring software can keep those borefields from failing with real-time information and alerts. Do you have problems with your heat pumps unexpectedly locking out due to high or low entering water temperatures? Advanced diagnostics
What is an 8760 Energy Model? An 8760 energy model is an hour-by-hour analysis that simulates a building’s performance for all 8,760 hours in a given 12-month period. This method uses the actual sequence of days and weather data, instead of averages. An 8760 analysis produces the most accurate energy model and operating cost estimates.
Going Green by Going Geothermal Geothermal energy comes from the consistent temperature that exists in the ground below us. This energy can generate a clean and sustainable source of heating and cooling. Geothermal energy exists under our feet and can be harnessed to heat and cool buildings, schools and even entire towns. Additionally, geothermal energy
Geothermal The Coolest Hot Topic in Energy With geothermal energy, your home, business, school district and whole town can benefit from the best available onsite source of free and clean energy. Imagine using efficient and sustainable energy to keep your occupants comfortable all year long from a source that is closer than you think.
GS Connect Rescue provides options for both critical and non-critical situations when an existing borefield is experiencing temperature drift. In a non-critical situation, Greensleeves will monitor the system for 12 months to determine the cause of the problem, and then propose the best solution. With a critical borefield, Greensleeves will provide the best
Geothermal Systems Get a Tax Break Guess who helped make the installation of geothermal systems more affordable? The federal government! In January 2018, the Federal Government extended the federal tax credits to 2021, effectively reducing the costs associated with geothermal systems. (Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018). As with the previous legislation that expired in 2016,
Making Dollars and Sense District energy systems can help communities reduce their heating and cooling costs and keep more energy dollars in the community. How does it work? Essentially, a geothermal district energy loop is installed in the ground near multiple buildings. This loop supplies heating and cooling to all of the buildings connected to the district energy
GS Connect Controls uses predictive building controls to help maximize the performance of commercial geothermal systems. Predictive controls are a control method that continuously updates and changes depending on the historic and current loads the building is experiencing. GS Controls learns the actual building use over time, adapts to these patterns and optimizes
