The United States Consumed Record Amount Of Renewable Energy In 2019
In 2019, consumption of renewable energy in the United States grew for the fourth year in a row, reaching a record 11.5 quadrillion British thermal units (Btu), or 11% of total U.S. energy consumption.
The Secret to Low Cost, Low Carbon Home Heating? Your Water Pipes
In this episode of the Local Energy Rules Podcast, host John Farrell speaks with Jay Egg, a geothermal expert, about the potential of minimizing the carbon footprint of heating and cooling buildings by adapting water mains to capture the heat just below the Earth’s surface. They discuss successful geothermal projects in Canada and the triumphs and challenges of projects in the U.S.
Air-Source Heat Pumps Versus Ground-Source Heat Pumps
Within the world of heat pumps, there are two major technologies that operate in similar ways but pull from very different sources. These two options are air-source heat pumps (ASHP) and ground-source heat pumps (GSHP). Dandelion Energy is breaking new ground that makes geothermal ground-source heat pumps more affordable and easier to put in place.
Pairing Geothermal Plus Rooftop Solar For A Truly Renewable Home
Many homeowners now use rooftop solar panels to generate their own electricity, and a geothermal heating and cooling system works well in tandem with solar panels because the geothermal heat pump helps regulate your home’s temperature using the electricity provided by your solar panels.
All You Need to Know About Home Geothermal Heating & Cooling
Have you heard of home geothermal heating and cooling? It’s an energy system that can save homeowners serious money on utility bills.
Thankfully, you don’t have to live anywhere near an active volcano to have an effective, money-saving home geothermal system installed.
Coal & Gas Are Too Variable To Be Worth Considering
Solar and wind power are absolutely predictable when it comes to variable costs. By contrast, coal and gas power are altogether too variable to be reliable.
