MARTHA’S VINEYARD, MA — This geothermal rescue was for a closed loop geothermal system that was seriously overheating during the cooling season. This system had ten vertical loops that served 11 heat ...

Millions of miles of tunnels criss-cross the ground under old mining communities across the United States. Abandoned, falling apart and choked with water, the tunnels are often viewed as a dangerous ...

Which makes this Eavor-Loop technology a bit of a unicorn. Essentially it's a low-enthalpy geothermal station that sends fluid through a sealed loop in a way that self-perpetuates without adding any ...

Researchers have used computer models of closed-loop geothermal systems to determine if they would be economically viable sources of renewable energy. They found that the cost of drilling would need ...

Glistening in the dry expanses of the Nevada desert is an unusual kind of power plant that harnesses energy not from the sun or wind, but from the Earth itself. The site, known as Project Red, it ...

Geothermal energy now stands out as a reliable, low-carbon solution in the transition to a balanced energy mix. While conventional geothermal systems rely on specific geological conditions, such as ...

At a recent meeting of the International Ground Source Heat Pump Association (IGSPHA), Enertech business development manager Rob Derksen shared tips for how HVAC contractors can become better at ...

Building electrification is becoming a major approach in fighting climate change and reducing emissions. As electrical generation becomes cleaner with wind, solar, and hydro, building electrification ...

Along with earthworms, rocks, and the occasional skeleton, there’s a massive battery right under your feet. Unlike a flammable lithium ion battery, though, this one is perfectly stable, free to use, ...

You're considering geothermal energy for your home? So lucky. Geothermal heating and cooling is a great way to lean into sustainable energy, and a long-term cost-effective solution that'll benefit ...

Open loop systems refer to another type of geothermal system where water is pumped out of the ground, run, through the geothermal heat pump, and then dumped back into a nearby body of water (like a ...
