Abstract
Geothermal energy is a vast, renewable, low carbon energy source that can be
converted to electricity and used to condition building environments. Almost
everywhere on the planet, within the upper 10 feet of the earth' s surface, a
nearly constant temperature of 50 to 60oF (10 to 16oC) is maintained. A
geothermal heat pump (GHP) consists of a network of piping or tubing buried in
shallow ground near the building, which can tap this free, year-round
reservoir of constant temperature.
Geothermal heat pumps can access the moderate temperatures just beneath the
earth' s surface and use it to heat and cool homes or commercial buildings.
Since the source of energy for this use is found all over the world, this
technology can be utilized virtually anywhere on the planet and is not
dependent on accessing the extremely hot water and steam deeper inside the
earth in the hot zones.
Current usage of geothermal heat pumps is limited. Out of the two million heat
pumps installed in the United States each year, just over 2 percent are
geothermal. However, increased development of geothermal technology will
improve its acceptance and use by governments, other organizations, developers
and homeowners.
Geothermal heat pumps offer a number of advantages over traditional heating
and cooling methods, namely:
- Reliable
- Renewable (self-replenishing natural resource)
- Combustion-Free
- Virtually zero Emissions
- No contribution to global warming
- Local Availability (no fuel or transportation expense)
However, the systems are higher priced than traditional air-source heat pumps
and installation can be substantially higher in cost due to the length of pipe
that is usually required to be installed underground.
In spite of the higher cost and land requirements, geothermal energy is
becoming an attractive solution as the global demand for clean, reliable,
renewable energy increases. This is true not only in the United States, but at
numerous locations on six continents.
The total market for U.S. GHPs in 2009 is estimated to be about $3.7 billion
dollars, including equipment and installation cost (and not reduced by
government or other incentives). PMG expects a high growth rate to continue
for a few years and by 2013 PMG projects the U.S. geothermal heat pump market
to almost triple in value.
Energy Beneath the Backyard presents a firm understanding of the technical,
economic, and market potential for geothermal heat pumps. Such an
understanding is required to assist decision makers in the identification of
the most efficient use of resources. Both historical and projected metrics
will be gathered to determine technology improvements and commercialization
opportunities. The report will conduct analyses of market, policy, and
technology status by evaluating the impacts of research and testing options.
Additionally, results of the analyses will provide information to researchers,
policy makers, and investors on areas to target for greater cost reduction and
market transformation.
Energy Beneath the Backyard contains comprehensive data on the U.S. and global
geothermal heat pump market, including historical (2004- 2008) and forecast
