Reduce Greenhouse Gases

Scientists say climate change is linked to an increase in greenhouse gas emissions from the production and use of fossil fuels around the world.

Geothermal Energy systems completely eliminate the need for fossil fuels for winter heating.

Reduce Dependence on Fossil Fuels

Early in this century, the production of fossil fuels (coal, oil and gas) will peak and start to decline. This will cause fossil fuel prices to rise dramatically, and governments around the world will have to develop alternative sources of energy to deal with the drop in production.

An intense effort by all nations will be required to develop energy conservation measures and renewable energy technologies.

The Toronto and Region Conservation Authority in its 2006 report Peak Oil: Regional Impact concluded:

“The potential ramifications of peak oil on the GTA... could be extensive if proper planning for a new energy future is not undertaken in the near future.”

The vast Geothermal resources in Ontario provide a unique opportunity to reduce our dependency on imported fossil fuels, provide a carbon free energy supply, and keep energy costs affordable.

Reduce Energy Costs

• A Geothermal Energy system provides lower monthly expenses than any other heating or cooling system.
• The initial investment of the Geothermal Energy system, can be repaid by the monthly energy savings over a short period of time.
• The monthly expense of a Geothermal Energy system is predictable, and protected against the rising costs of fossil fuels and electricity.
• A geothermal system's maintenance expenses are far cheaper than solar, wind and traditional power.
• The piping in the earth, which recovers the geothermal energy, will last longer than the building itself.
