2 WHAT IS GEOTHERMAL AND HOW DOES IT WORK? REHAU Page 2
3 WHAT IS GEOTHERMAL ENERGY? Definition - Geo (Earth) thermal (heat) - Geothermal = heat exchange with the Earth - Geoexchange is gaining popularity - This term describes the entire system from ground loops to circulation pumps to the heat pump Where does the energy come from? - The Earth's core - Radioactive decay - The sun - Insolation impacts the outer crust REHAU Page 3
4 THE TEMPERATURE OF THE EARTH - Heat is continually supplied to the ground in the form of solar energy - Approximately 46% of the sun s energy is absorbed by the Earth (U.S. Dept. of Energy) - At a depth of approximately 15 feet the ground temperature remains fairly constant, with a mean annual Earth temperature of F (depending on location) REHAU Page 4
5 MEAN ANNUAL EARTH TEMPERATURES EARTH S UNIQUE THERMAL INSULATION CAPABILITY REHAU Page 5
6 STABLE EARTH TEMPERATURE Ground Temperature The greater the depth, the more stable the ground temperature is Thermal lag, the seasonal effect, is more dramatic at shallow depths Example from a specific U.S. region Line 1 = February Line 2 = May Line 3 = November Line 4 = August Depth (ft) Temperature ( F) REHAU Page 6
7 HOW DOES IT WORK 0 F 70 F Insulating layer of earth A Geothermal System absorbs heat from the ground in winter & transfers the heat into the building F REHAU Page 7
8 HOW DOES IT WORK 100 F 70 F Insulating layer of earth and cools the building in summer by rejecting heat to the ground F REHAU Page 8
9 HOW DOES IT WORK? Principles A geothermal system gets the majority of its energy from the earth s latent heat A geothermal system pumps heat from one location to another 25% (1 unit of purchased electricity) 100% (4 units of heat to the building) 75% (3 units of free energy from the Earth) REHAU Page 9
10 HOW DOES IT WORK? - Ground loop (Earth): A sealed and pressurized closed loop pipe system circulates water/antifreeze solution below the Earth s surface - Refrigerant loop (Heat pump): A sealed and pressurized loop transfers the thermal energy in the heat pump through the compressor - Air loop (Air distribution): Distributes conditioned air to the building - Desuperheater loop (optional): For Domestic Hot Water REHAU Page 10
11 SUMMARY Ground Source Heat Pumps are: - Electrically powered systems that tap the stored energy of the greatest solar collector in existence: the Earth. These systems use the Earth's relatively constant temperature to provide heating, cooling, and hot water for homes and commercial buildings. * - Efficient, cost effective and environmentally-friendly heating/cooling systems *International Ground Source Heat Pump Association (IGSHPA) REHAU Page 11
12 WHAT BENEFITS DO GEOTHERMAL SYSTEMS OFFER YOU? REHAU Page 12
13 PRIMARY BENEFITS: ENERGY SAVINGS Heating 30% - 70% energy savings Cooling 20% - 50% energy savings REHAU Page 13
14 PRIMARY BENEFITS: ENERGY SAVINGS COP = COEFFICIENT OF PERFORMANCE Energy Source Electrical Resistance Propane Fuel Oil Natural Gas Geothermal COP COP = Total energy produced by system / energy purchased or COP = What you got / what you bought REHAU Page 14
15 PRIMARY BENEFITS: ENERGY SAVINGS SAMPLE COSTS - VIRGINIA, LATE 2008 Energy Source Electrical Resistance Cost / Energy Unit (Efficiency) $0.08/kWh (100%) Net Cost (USD) / 1,000,000 BTU $22.75 Propane $2.75/Gal (88%) $34.00 Fuel Oil $2.50/Gal (85%) $21.00 Natural Gas $1.30/Therm (93%) $14.00 Geothermal 4.0 COP (400%) $5.69 Conversions: 1 kw = 3413 BTU; 1 Gal Propane = 92,000 BTU; 1 Gal No. 2 = 140,000 BTU; 1 Therm = 100,000 BTU REHAU Page 15
16 BENEFITS LEAD TO GOVERNMENT INCENTIVES Geothermal benefits have helped government officials to understand the positive impact that these systems have on energy independence, the environment and national security. Federal tax incentives as part of the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act - An uncapped 30% residential tax credit is available for each residential GHP installation - A 10% federal grant is available for each commercial installation - Incentives last through 2016 All 50 states have some kind of GHP Incentive Visit the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency ( website for a list REHAU Page 16
17 BENEFITS LEAD TO GOVERNMENT INCENTIVES Geothermal benefits have helped government officials to understand the positive impact that these systems have on energy independence, the environment and national security. 29 states have financial incentives - Sales tax and property tax exemptions, income tax credits and grants 31 states have regulatory incentives - Green public building requirements 29 states have utility incentives - Loans and rebates - Mandatory Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS) and Energy Performance Standards (EPS) - Voluntary Demand Side Management (DSM) Programs REHAU Page 17
18 COST COMPARISON: GEOTHERMAL VS. CONVENTIONAL TECHNOLOGY Location: Baltimore, MD Heating Load: 84,000 BTU Cooling Load: 36,000 BTU Conventional Heating Source High efficiency natural gas furnace Forced air distribution $11,000 Conventional Cooling Source Central air conditioning Additional $4,000 Geothermal System House Size: 3,500 ft 2 7-ton* ground source heat pump Rough total system cost of $30,000 (vs. $15,000) Typically monthly savings on utilities outweighs increased monthly mortgage payment *1 ton = 12,000 BTU/hour REHAU Page 18
19 COMPARISON: GEOTHERMAL VS. CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM Data based on Baltimore, MD design parameters using Ground Loop Design Software REHAU Page 19
20 COMPARISON: GEOEXCHANGE VS. CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM REHAU Page 20
21 SUMMARY: BENEFITS OF GROUND SOURCE HEAT PUMP TECHNOLOGY - Reduced operating costs - Reduced emissions - Low maintenance - Simplicity - Efficiency - Water heating - No auxiliary heat - Low power demand - Packaged equipment - Environmentally friendly REHAU Page 21
22 GEOTHERMAL DESIGN BASIC SYSTEM COMPONENTS AND DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS REHAU Page 22
23 BASIC SYSTEM COMPONENTS GROUND SOURCE HEAT PUMP WATER-TO-AIR - Most common heat pump type where heating and cooling are required - Works with forced air distribution REHAU Page 23
24 BASIC SYSTEM COMPONENTS GROUND SOURCE HEAT PUMP WATER-TO-WATER - For heating and cooling - Residential or commercial - Works ideally with hydronic (water) distribution - Radiant heating/cooling - Snow and ice melting - Also works with forced air distribution using hydronic fan coils REHAU Page 24
25 BASIC SYSTEM COMPONENTS MANIFOLD, CIRCULATION PUMP, FLOW CENTER REHAU Page 25
26 BASIC SYSTEM COMPONENTS GROUND LOOP PIPES POLYETHYLENE PIPES WITH FUSED U-BEND - Fusion-welded single x U-bend - HDPE Material - 3/4, 1, 1 1/4 pipes - CTS or IPS dimensions - Fused joints, in field or factory - Two pipes in a bore hole (one loop) REHAU Page 26
27 BASIC SYSTEM COMPONENTS GROUND LOOP PIPES CROSS-LINKED POLYETHYLENE (PEXa) - Continuous Single or Double U-bend - PEXa material - 3/4 or 1 sizes - CTS SDR9 dimensions - No joints in the well or loop - Up to four pipes in a bore hole (two loops) REHAU Page 27
