Geothermal Energy – Clean, Renewable, Proven

MetroWest Climate Solutions and Green Newton will offer a free webinar on geothermal technologies. Geothermal networks can take advantage of heat stored deep in the earth to heat and cool buildings. To register for this session, please visit metrowestclimatesolutions.org.

Geothermal has significant potential as a clean, renewable, predictable energy source for local communities. It taps local energy that’s always available, shielding customers from fluctuating fossil fuel prices.

Angie Alberto Escobar, HEET’s Gas-to-Geo Transition Director, will provide an overview of geothermal technology and an update on the Framingham project. She will also discuss what’s next for this exciting energy source.
