VERMONT JOINS NEW YORK

WE’RE GOING TO NY GEO 2023

New York Geothermal Energy Organization, or NY GEO, is a leader in geothermal and other thermal energy networks.

With a new state law mandating that all of the state’s utilities have at least one geothermal or other thermal energy network project in the works, our neighbor New York is a model and a huge resource for us in Vermont.

NY GEO’s website is a wealth of information and their annual conference is a must-do for people in the geothermal and ground source heat pump trades.

Start with Who We Are, and make sure to watch the 2 minute video that has a great animation showing how geothermal works for a single home.

With so much attention on geothermal and other kinds of thermal energy networks, NY GEO is also a great place for local leaders, elected officials, regulators, housing and environmental nonprofits, and clean energy advocates to learn how to bring thermal networks to more communities.

This year, VCGA became a member and will attend the annual conference. We hear April is lovely in Albany…

Check back here in early May for how we’ll use what we learn to accelerate thermal energy networks in Vermont.
