Simon Todd’s presentation to the Northern Ireland IHEEM describing the opportunities for geothermal to support the decarbonisation of heat in hospitals.
As well as prior work on the positive impacts on costs and emissions reductions if geothermal heat is used for heat pumps instead of air or surface water, Simon shared some new research work on geothermal applicability across Northern Ireland, including maps that give an indication of probability of success before a Phase 1 Feasibilty & Concept Selection Study is done.
