Summary

When most institutions think about the broad topic of renewable campus energy, geo-exchange technologies are not the first that come to mind. The focus has been on solar and wind, especially large-scale off-campus generation; batteries thermal storage for hot or cold water; and co-generation with an emphasis on renewable fuels. But NOT building or district-scale ground-source heating and cooling. Through this presentation, we would delve into the practicalities and logistics of the technology itself. We’ll compare the results and outcomes with more common low- and zero- carbon methodologies, and look at the tantalizing financial opportunities potentially on offer. Finally the presentation will detail specific completed GIE managed projects.
