Description
Westchester GeoPossibilities was a free online tool that allowed Westchester County property owners to assess the feasibility of geothermal heating and cooling for any building or property in the County. The Westchester GeoPossibilities tool built upon a similar tool created previously by the City of New York, and provided information and assistance for energy efficiency and clean-heating solutions for gas constrained areas.
The development of Westchester GeoPossibilities was supported by NYSERDA and helped advance New York State’s nation-leading climate and clean energy goals under the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (Climate Act). The consulting engineering firm Goldman Copeland, which created a Geothermal Screening Tool for New York City, collaborated with Stone Environmental, Over Morgen, and Flux Tailor to develop this resource.
Eligibility
Property owners located in Westchester County, New York could use the tool to assess their property.
