NextEnergy Geothermal Solutions of Elmira, Ontario, markets and distributes geothermal systems to meet the demands of the Canadian climate. In order to show the benefits of geothermal, the company became a "working model" of geothermal with the recent completion of its 25,000-square-foot building in the southern Ontario community, approximately 75 miles west of Toronto.
The building has a weather station that collects weather data specific to this site in real time to facilitate an on-demand heat loss/gain profile, showing real-time energy generation from the earth loop and the wind energy consumed.
