Geothermal heating co-op shares warmth among Montreal neighbours

        January 20, 2022 CBC | Montreal | renewables: geothermal

A neighbourhood Montreal co-op began heating 7 homes retrofitted with geothermal heat pumps (aka ground source heat pumps or geoexchange systems). To reduce costs and comply with laws, 8 150-m-deep geothermal wells were dug in a private backyard rather than a public alleyway, and are shared. The goal is to connect 50 homes. AC is also avaialble.
