1 The Energy-Water Highway: Getting the Least Use from Evaporative Devices

Cary Smith, Sound Geothermal Corp.
Cooling towers used by water source systems can consume up to 50% of a site’s potable water. Owners and design-professionals must cut down on CTs that reject waste heat for space cooling by the power of evaporation. Towers consume water, chemicals, and lots of electricity; producing wastewater unqualified to pass through treatment plants. Can anything take their place? YES! Distributed GSHP systems provide thermal leverage on reduced power demand; reducing cooling tower water wastage by 50% - 70% and electric consumption by 60%. Explore how a GX-based Distributed Energy System enables solutions to Energy/Water Nexus challenges.
