Oct. 22, 2003: Geoexchange Is A Solution For Calif.'s Energy Problems
WASHINGTON - Geoexchange heating and cooling technology is a possible solution to meeting California's rising energy demands, according to Wael El-Sharif, executive director of the Geothermal Heat Pump Consortium (GHPC).
"We've seen clear indications that electricity demand in California is continuing to rise and while the California Energy Commission has stated that the state's electricity supplies should be sufficient through 2006, some generating companies see the supply waning as early as 2005 - that's just 15 months away."
