Registration is open for the new DFI Energy Foundations Seminar being held on September 18 at the University of Illinois – Chicago.
This one-day seminar focuses on Practical Construction Aspects of Designing, Installing and Operating a Ground-Sourced Heat Pump Solution Connected to Energy Foundations. Speakers will detail good practice guidelines for designing and installing a ground-sourced heat pump solution that uses geothermal loops installed within energy foundations and structures. Presentations will discuss the importance and benefits of long-term management and operation of such a system to ensure that the system delivers the designed heating and/or cooling loads and can be optimized to enhance returns on investment to make a project more attractive.
Highlights include:
- Use of Ground Source Heat Pump Association (GSHP) document for design
- Energy foundations applications
- Bridge deck deicing opportunities
- Research results
- GSHP mechanical systems
- Good working practice
