Networked geothermal is the clean energy solution most people have never heard of. Yet it's already tried and true, operational on campuses and in communities. It’s delivering both heating and cooling that ticks all the boxes: safe, reliable, resilient, affordable, healthy, and sustainable.

On a gorgeous end-of-October Friday, a special panel introduced REV members—and others at Northern New England’s largest renewable energy conference—to this proven thermal solution.

Our panel reviewed how networked geothermal systems work, the process from pre-design to operation, examples of successful installations, and consideration of both utility and community scales. We also discussed this solution can fit multiple ownership models, support affordable housing, and provide similar jobs for gas workers and trades.
