Geothermal
Energy: The
World's Greenest Heating and Cooling System
Looking
for an efficient, cost effective, and environmentally friendly
heating/cooling system?
A geothermal heat pump is the greenest
way to go. Learn the facts about geothermal energy.
An EPA study of energy
efficiency concluded geothermal energy is the most environmentally
friendly heating/cooling system.
The United States National
Renewable Energy Laboratory concluded that geothermal
energy is more efficient
and cost-effective compared with conventional residential
systems.
Geothermal cost savings
can be increased by geothermal
energy incentives, available
from federal, state, local,
and utility sources.
Energy and cost savings of geothermal
heat pumps will vary by region and type of conventional
system they're
compared with. But the energy cost of geothermal versus
conventional HVAC systems will always be lower — and
the geothermal system will always be greener.
