Join distinguished leaders from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for a deep dive into the new Geothermal Heating and Cooling report. The Pathways to Commercial Liftoff reports aim to establish a common fact base between the public and private sectors on critical clean energy technologies and what it will take to scale their commercialization. These reports are the product of comprehensive stakeholder engagement with industry, investors, the broader enabling ecosystem.
Pathways to Commercial Liftoff: Geothermal Heating and Cooling marks the second report in DOE’s Liftoff series featuring geothermal. Geothermal heating and cooling technologies are important and underutilized solutions for supporting a more resilient and efficient national energy system, as well as reducing emissions from buildings. This report paves the way to dramatically expand the domestic geothermal industry while helping Americans have better access to local, affordable heating and cooling technologies.
