Waterless Geothermal: A Game-Changer for New York State

| March 20, 2024

New York State is no stranger to innovation and forward-thinking solutions, especially when it comes to sustainable energy practices. As the state continues to prioritize eco-friendly initiatives, geothermal energy emerges as a transformative force, offering unparalleled benefits for homeowners, businesses, and the environment. Let’s delve deep into the myriad advantages of geothermal energy specifically tailored for the Empire State.

 

Unmatched Cost-Efficiency

When it comes to long-term savings Waterless® Geothermal reigns supreme. The return on investment is substantial. By tapping into the earth’s stable temperatures below the frost line, geothermal systems drastically reduce energy consumption compared to traditional heating and cooling methods. Over time, New Yorkers can expect to recoup their investment through significantly lower monthly utility bills and minimal maintenance expenses.

 

Stellar Energy Savings and Efficiency

Waterless® Geothermal stands as a paragon of energy efficiency, offering New Yorkers an unparalleled opportunity to slash their carbon footprint. By leveraging the earth’s consistent thermal energy, we can deliver reliable heating and cooling year-round, regardless of external weather conditions. This efficiency not only translates to substantial energy savings but also contributes to a cleaner, greener New York by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and reliance on fossil fuels.

 

Green Energy and Environmental Stewardship

In alignment with New York’s ambitious climate goals, geothermal energy serves as a cornerstone of sustainable development. By transitioning to Waterless® Geothermal, residents and businesses can significantly mitigate their environmental impact, paving the way for cleaner air, reduced pollution, and enhanced ecological resilience. Moreover, geothermal installations have a minimal footprint, preserving New York’s natural landscapes and ecosystems for future generations to enjoy.

 

Lucrative Tax Incentives and Rebates

New York residents can capitalize on generous federal and state tax incentives to offset geothermal installation costs significantly. The federal tax credit from the IRA (Inflation Reduction Act) covers 30% of a geothermal system’s cost, which equals thousands of substantial financial relief for homeowners and businesses alike. Additionally, New York State also offers a lucrative 25% tax credit up to $5000 on geothermal installation expenses, further enhancing affordability and accessibility.

 

But the incentives don’t stop there. Various local utilities across New York provide substantial rebates for geothermal installations. For instance, a 2,500 square foot home installing a 5 Ton 47,900 BTUH Heat Pump can expect the following rebates:

 

– Central Hudson: $9,580

– ConEd: $20,000

– National Grid: $7,185

– NYSEG / RGE: $7,185

– Orange & Rockland: $9,580

– PSEG Long Island: $10,717
