Geoexchange heating and cooling systems—often referred to as geothermal—are more than just equipment; they form the backbone of a building’s energy infrastructure. Project success depends on a proven design methodology, supported by years of operational experience and data-driven insights.
In this webinar, Diverso Co-Founders Tim Weber and Sergio Almeida, along with Agustin Olt, Partner at MCW, brought this expertise to the table. Drawing on their experience collaborating on large-scale geothermal projects, they explored critical, often overlooked topics that must be addressed when optimizing geoexchange systems for building design and performance:
• The use of glycol and its potential risks
• Proper borefield sizing and the hidden costs of downsizing
• The importance of geothermal–mechanical system integration
Armed with actionable insights on each topic, attendees left better prepared to ask the right questions of their geothermal and mechanical engineers.
