Indian Army inaugurates geothermal-based Net Zero Energy Building

1 week ago | thinkgeoenergy.com | Think Geoenergy |Carlo Cariaga

The Indian Army has inaugurated a Geothermal-Based Net Zero Building at Jhansi, with a shallow geothermal borehole field for space air conditioning. A Geothermal-Based Net Zero Building has been inaugurated at the city of Jhansi in Uttar Pradesh, India. An array of ten boreholes, drilled to a depth of 120 meters each, provides space air conditioning to the building, thus far being able to maintain indoor temperatures of 26-27 °C while the outdoor temperature is at 43 °C.
Auckland, New Zealand explores geothermal to reduce heating bills

1 week ago | thinkgeoenergy.com | Think Geoenergy |Carlo Cariaga

The technology works by drilling a shallow well near the property and running a water pipe through it. As the water flows through the pipe, it absorbs natural heat from the ground. This raises the water temperature by a few degrees, meaning less electricity is needed to heat it to the desired level – ultimately reducing overall energy use and power bills.
