Geothermal
systems use the renewable free energy available from the earth to
provide heating in the winter and cooling in the summer. They utilize the mild
ground temperature to transfer excess heat from your home to the earth in the
cooling mode, or transfer heat from the earth to your home in the heating mode.
Cost efficient - because system has less work to do to reach desired
temperature, geothermal heat pumps are greater than 400% more efficient than traditional
systems.

The initial installation price of a geothermal system may appear to be more than
that of an air source system of the same heating and cooling capacity, but the
additional costs can be returned by utilizing the tax credit and rebates
combined with energy savings in as little as two-five years.
In some instances a geothermal system investment costs the same as a traditional
high efficiency system, but geothermal pay back is constant and ongoing.
One of the greatest benefit of geothermal is that
the systems use up to 80% less
energy than traditional systems and owners enjoy 25-80 percent lower utility
bills, states the Geothermal Exchange Organization.

the cost savings of solar technology.
The federal solar tax credit, also known as the investment tax credit (ITC), allows you
to deduct 30 percent of the cost of installing a solar energy system from your federal taxes.
The ITC applies to both residential and commercial systems, and there is no cap on its value.
