Summary of presentation:
In recent years, geothermal energy has gained more notice, and by now, almost everyone has at least heard the term... but who really understands what it is? President of Strategic Energy Solutions and self-described "geo-junkie" Steve DiBerardine does, and in this presentation he shares his expertise, discussing the design and economics behind it, touching on topics such as the different options available and the economics of good geothermal design. Attendees will walk away with a better understanding of commercial ground source heat pump systems and their benefits.

Best of all the cost is $2195 less $100 for AEE Members AND it includes the separate $300 CEM Application Fee. This is a great deal taking place close to southeast Michigan the week after Thanksgiving. Great location, inexpensive travel and housing AND a discount. Note that the CEM Application Fee will be increased to $400 January 1, 2013 so why not take advantage of the last opportunity in 2012?
