Final Conclusions
Geothermal Systems
•
Hybrid geothermal systems can reduce first costs
while still reducing energy use
•
Horizontal Directional Drilling offers ability to install
geothermal fields with little land disturbance
Radiant Floor Slabs
•
Can be used to flatten demand profile
•
Controllability becomes important because cooling
effect is not instant
