Micah Parkin wanted to quash her home's carbon pollution to help fight climate change. So she took a familiar step among climate-inclined homeowners: She got a heat pump — just not the typical variety ...

Ground source heat pumps are well established as a low-carbon heating solution, and a long-term alternative to using fossil fuels to heat your home and hot water. But, unlike other heat sources, there ...

Scientists from China have developed a novel optimization method for medium-depth ground source heat pumps, using an improved chaos particle swarm optimization. They coupled it with either a heat ...

Ground source heat pumps, a small but growing segment of the U.S. heating and cooling sector, could help slash energy demands, boost American manufacturing and stabilize the electric grid as AI-fueled ...

Industry leaders at the International Ground Source Heat Pump Association's 2025 Annual Conference painted a stark picture of approaching energy challenges while highlighting potential solutions ...

What is a heat pump and how does it work? - Heat pumps use electricity to provide efficient, low-carbon heating, with grants ...

Heat pumps offer an energy-efficient alternative to furnaces and air conditioners for all climates. Like your refrigerator, heat pumps use electricity to transfer heat from a cool space to a warm ...

Researchers in South Korea have analyzed the feasibility of using thermoelectric generators in combination with residential solar-assisted ground-source heat pumps and have found that the ...

Federal incentives for home energy improvements are running out at the end of the year, so it’s decision time for anyone who has been thinking about a heat pump. The right decision can depend on where ...

Support CleanTechnica's work through a Substack subscription or on Stripe. Whether it is a sweltering summer or a frigid winter, digging just a few feet into the earth provides relief from the ...

Ground source heat pump (GSHP) systems harness the relatively constant temperature of the subsurface to provide efficient heating and cooling for buildings and infrastructure. By circulating a fluid ...

Around 36,000 schools in the U.S. are in need of updated heating and cooling systems, according to the Government Accountability Office. Many students are trying to learn in environments that are too ...
