SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (WWLP) - It's called geothermal technology and one local organization is hoping to save energy costs. The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local Seven is combining geothermal with an already existing solar powered system.
Any house can save money and the environment by installing a geothermal energy system. In Sam Johnston's interview with New England Dream House, you will hear about all the benefits of geothermal systems and how it works.
Sam Johnston says that the key challenges facing the geothermal energy business, and Terraclime, are building awareness of the concept and creating a workforce.
The Connecticut Clean Energy Fund (CCEF) has established a geothermal heat pump incentive program which provides up to $2,000 per ton of heating installed.
This incentive program, combined with the 30% Federal Tax Credit, offers Connecticut residents up to a 60% savings on the cost of installation. Contact us to find out more.
