## Caption

Driving down Bellevue Avenue in Newport you may have noticed some heavy machinery on property at Chateau-sur-Mer.

As part of our ongoing geothermal efforts we are drilling 21 to 425 foot deep wells to supply 60 tons of much-needed climatization to the house. These wells will use the earth’s constant temperature at depth to provide heat exchange to either heat or cool the piping that will feed equipment located in the basement of CSM providing climate control to the house.

Geothermal power is considered to be renewable energy because the heat extraction is insignificant compared with the Earth's heat content. Direct-use applications and geothermal heat pumps have almost no negative effects on the environment. In fact, they can have a positive effect by reducing the use of fossil fuels that can have negative effects on the environment.

This is not a pilot program for us. Chepstow, The Breakers and the Berwind-Stautberg Scholars Center at The Elms already use geothermal energy!
