Earth Energy Society of Canada

Earth Energy Society of Canada

Ottawa, ON

Company Overview

The Earth Energy Society of Canada is the industry association for the domestic sector.

In Canada, equipment must be certified to CSA/ISO 13256 standard while design and installation is governed by CSA C448.

EESC promotes earth energy as a Green Heat technology of renewable energy. In most cases, three-quarters of system cost is to install the ground loop, which produces significant 'local benefits.'

Keywords:

Promotion of the earth energy (GeoExchange) sector in Canada.

Technology Profile:

Earth energy transfers absorbed solar heat from the ground into a building for space conditioning or water heating applications. The system can also reject building heat to the ground using the reverse process, to provide space cooling.

Unique Applications:

Earth energy technology can also be used to cool ice surfaces (skating rinks, etc), and distribute the heat to space conditioning applications.

Major Clients:

Clients include ICI and residential applications which require space heating, space cooling or water heating.

Success Stories:

New construction can provide an immediate payback period compared with combustion technologies, with documented success stories in the education sector (schools) and low-rise office buildings.

  • A De-superheater Option On An Earth Energy Heat Pump.

    Earth Energy Technology transfers solar heat from the ground (or water) outside, into interior space heat. It can also discharge interior heat into the ground (or water) to provide space cooling. Overall, Earth Energy Systems can provide the most environmentally-benign space conditioning options, and the lowest lifecycle cost.

    In cold climates, there is sufficient latent heat in a body of water (lake, river, aquifer) to provide space conditioning. More than one metre under the ground, there is also ample latent heat. Earth Energy Technology extracts this heat using a vapour cycle compressor, and transfers the final heat to the interior of residential, commercial or institutional applications.

    In warm climates, the cycle is reversed to remove heat from the building, and transfer it to the ground or water source.

    An Earth Energy heat pump boasts a Co-efficient Of Performance (CoP) of at least 3.0, which means that for every kilowatt of electricity consumed to provide electro- mechanical power, at least three kilowatts of heating/cooling energy is provided.

    Although heat pumps consume electricity which may be generated by non-green' power, the delivered energy is solar/ renewable energy.

    There are numerous construction and lifestyle benefits associated with Earth Energy Systems, including less temperature fluctuations in air flow, no outside equipment and less envelope penetrations, reduced space for mechanical rooms, decentralized comfort control, and more.

    Once an Earth Energy System is installed, the unit can provide 100% of hot water demand. A connection to a hot water tank allows the solar heat to be directed to water conditioning.
