Enginomix LLC
IPSEpro is an open-equation modeling software package used to design, analyze and optimize power plants. It can model conventional and renewable technologies, including geothermal ( ash & CRC), solar thermal, desalination, heat recovery (ORC & sCO2), and hybrid plants. With IPSEpro, design virtually any geothermal power plant and predict its off-design performance over a wide range of conditions, accounting for changes in load, ambient, reservoir produc- tion, and equipment degradation. www.enginomix.net
P ster Energy
P ster Energy specializes in the design and construction of renewable energy solutions for commercial, industrial, and institutional facilities with an emphasis on building- integrated applications, and energy supply services. P ster Energy carefully considers all the particulars of a building and provides their client with the necessary information needed to determine if a geothermal heat pump is right for their facility. p sterenergy.com
Exergy SpA
EXERGY designs and manufactures Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) systems with the Ra- dial Out ow Turbine for power generation from medium to low enthalpy geothermal heat sources. EXERGY’s ORC plants are a cost effective solution offering multiple pressure level plant with single turbine disk with ef ciency up to 6% more than axial turbines and extreme exibility for changing geothermal uid conditions due to a higher number of stages. EXERGY’s solutions are available from small modular unit up to 50MW plants.

REHAU
The REHAU RAUGEO ground loop heat exchange system uses crosslinked polyethylene (PEXa) pipe that offers superior exibility and abrasion resist- ance compared to HDPE, while prefabricated double U-bends require up to 30% less borehole footage than a single HDPE U-bend. RAUGEO ground loops usually begin and end at a balanc- ing manifold that, unlike the typical reverse- return header, provides easy access and allows each ground loop to be individually controlled for system optimization. www.na.rehau.com/raugeo
WaterFurnace International, Inc.
WaterFurnace’s 7 Series is the geothermal industry’s rst variable capacity unit available to homeowners and surpasses both 41EER and 5.3COP ef ciency barriers. This unit features Aurora communicating controls that work in concert with the variable capacity compressor, variable speed loop pump, and variable speed blower motor to offer comfort you have to expe- rience to believe. The 7 Series can ramp down to 20% of normal operation or scale up to 130% output using SuperBoost cooling. www.waterfurnace.com

BS&B Safety Systems, LLC
BS&B keeps geothermal power plants and solar power plants safe from the dangers of overpres- sure with its Sta-Saf line-up of rupture disks. Sta-Saf rupture disks are used as stand-alone devices or combined with relief valves. Rupture disks protect ASME process vessels from static overpressure and runaway reaction. Low pressure disk designs are available to protect systems with design pressures as low as 0.2 psig (6WC). www.bsbsystems.com
The Bosch Greensource CDi series stands for Complete Design with Innovation, and is built and tested to be a high ef ciency and reliable unit. The Greensource CDi Series Model SM heat pump comes in cooling capacities from 2 to 6 tons and is equipped with quality and innovative technology to cool and heat a home economically and in an environmentally friendly manner. Avail- able in packaged or split system con gurations. www.boschheatingandcooling.com
