Northampton High School Geothermal System Project
Sector: Geothermal • Location: Northampton, Massachusetts, United States

A proposed geothermal system for Northampton High School is under consideration. Final performance will not be guaranteed until drilling and well testing are complete. Potential cost savings include reinfiltrating drilling-produced water to irrigate school fields, which could reduce projected costs by roughly $2,000,000, and earning alternative-energy credits that could generate about $1,000,000 o

Description
Description | A proposed geothermal system for Northampton High School is under consideration. Final performance will not be guaranteed until drilling and well testing are complete. Potential cost savings include reinfiltrating drilling-produced water to irrigate school fields, which could reduce projected costs by roughly $2,000,000, and earning alternative-energy credits that could generate about $1,000,000 over the first 10 years. Staff recommended a turnkey design-bid-build contractor able to guarantee 15 years of performance and monitoring to avoid problems seen elsewhere. Next steps include drilled-well testing, firm bids for turnkey offers, and obtaining firm cost and duration terms for monitoring and interconnection impact studies. |
