Geothermal Heat Pump Technology, the "Energy Under Our Feet" can provide us with a "Triple E" solution, Energy Independence, Environmental Security and Economic Prosperity. Currently we have less than a 2% share of the market, in my document "The Road to 30%" it shows that with a 30% share of the market (HVAC & water heating) we could achieve and pass the goals set by the Kyoto agreement, we could lessen our dependency on foreign oil by at least 25% and we could retain or create 5 million jobs. All this and we provide comfort to the constituency.
We need to have the Utilities involved and have the ground loop heat exchangers (the pipes in the ground) qualify for emission credits or renewable energy credits, that way the Utilities could own the loops and use the credits for their generation plants that need the credits. It becomes a win, win, win situation. The customer gets a system that uses less energy and provides comfort, the green collar worker (installer, driller, designer etc has the work and the Utility gets the emission offset. We would have to train more of the infrastructure but that is a positive also. Once again, the "Energy Under Our Feet" is a 60 year old new technology that can solve a major portion of the problems that are currently plagueing our country.
