NEW CONSTRUCTION: CORNELL TECH CAMPUS GEOTHERMAL DESIGN HIGHLIGHT

Cutting-edge building technologies and sustainable design were employed to keep in line with the prestigious Cornell Tech’s education and environmental mission for building its new campus.

The Bloomberg Center is the main academic building that was able to achieve Net-Zero energy certification with a geothermal well design. The closed-loop ground source system was installed underneath the building with 80 boreholes drilled to 400 feet deep. This system provides 265 tons of cooling and is all-electric.
