U.S. Department of Energy, Geothermal Technologies Office, GTO, released 19 case studies on geothermal heat pump (GHP) systems. These studies showcase installations across different U.S. climate zones, highlighting various system types, sizes, and benefits to help people better understand GHP technology. The results provide real-life examples of GHP systems in different parts of the country, making it easier for people to understand how such a system might work for them.

Jens Ponikau, CGD, NY-GEO President and Co-Founder Buffalo Geothermal recently presented to NYSEG/RGE.

This program and data were instrumental in geothermal being included in the global assumptions suggested by Charels River Assc. (CRA) for NYSEG/RGE.
