They heat using the constant thermal energy of the Earth in the winter and then cool by using it as a heat sink in the summer, remaining unaffected by changes in weather. In this way, geothermal is superior to air-source heat pumps year-round, which could still require fossil fuel, electric resistance heat support, or backup for very cold days of the year. These systems can be excellent solutions for organizations trying to electrify their buildings, particularly in states with colder seasonal temperatures. \u003c/p>\u003cp >And, resiliency matters.
