Presentation Overview
From the Ground Up: Sustainable Future of Heating and Cooling
As we look to carbon-free solutions for heating and cooling buildings, air-source heat pumps get much of the attention, but geothermal heat pump systems offer an alternative to fossil fuels that don’t vary with weather or time of day. The panelists will speak about their experiences implementing geothermal systems, big and small, including the key drivers in moving forward with those systems and how incentives and tax credits impacted decisions.
