Geothermal: How HDPE Pipe Facilitates a Renewable Energy

Summary:

The need to incorporate renewable energy technologies such as Ground Source Heat Exchange (aka geothermal) is on to the rise as we collectively address concerns to lower our carbon footprint, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, increase energy efficiency, and move towards a more sustainable and resilient infrastructure.

In this episode of ISCO Insights you’ll hear from ISCO’s Will Vodak, Host of Insights, Stuart Lyle, Geothermal Expert, and Trey Austin, III, PE, CGD, CEO and President of Geo-Energy Services review the critical advantages of using thermoplastics in geothermal applications. Their durability, chemical resistance, and heat resistance make them an ideal choice for piping systems, geothermal wells, and heat exchangers. Additionally, their cost-effectiveness and environmentally friendly properties make them a desirable alternative to traditional materials.

We’ll cover:

  • Geothermal system configurations
  • Advantages of thermoplastics (HDPE, Aquatherm, PE-RT)
  • New product overview and applications: vaults, manifolds, thermal grouts
