Explore why geothermal energy—thanks to its tiny land footprint, round-the-clock reliability, and seamless integration with solar, wind and urban thermal networks—is emerging as a cornerstone of a sustainable, resilient, high-density clean-energy future.

Understanding geotechnical reports is essential for plumbing engineers, as groundwater, soil conditions and subsurface risks directly impact below-grade systems and require careful coordination with structural, civil and geotechnical teams to ensure reliable, damage-free designs.

Geothermal systems, when paired with the right climate and building programs, can turn waste heat into year-round efficiency, offering a powerful path to reduced energy use, resilience and sustainable design.

Initially planned for an annual production of 50 MW of industrial high-temperature heat pumps, the project is being adapted to double its capacity to 100 MW per year by 2027.

As refineries confront mounting heat and water challenges, geothermal exchange is emerging as a game-changing solution that can slash water use, boost resiliency and turn industrial waste heat into a valuable community asset.

All comments should be submitted using the exact wording wished to be recommended to the technical committees for review.

The 173,000-square-foot addition nearly triples the size of the facility, creating new opportunities to expand production, enhance efficiencies, and continue meeting the rising demand for renewable energy technologies.
