| Abstract | Low temperature geothermal fluids are well suited for commercial scale greenhouse heating. Significant energy and temperature control benefits are realized with hydronic benchtop heating systems. Results of one year of operation of a unique geothermal hydronic benchtop system demonstrate energy savings, increased plant production, and low maintenance costs. |
