The Opportunity for Networked Geothermal Energy in Colorado | CESA Member Interviews

Brief

Bryce Carter, Geothermal Program Manager at the Colorado Energy Office, gives an interview (published 2026-04-29) describing geothermal heat pumps' efficiency and the concept of networked geothermal—interconnected systems across multiple buildings—as a way to transform heating and cooling. The conversation points listeners to CESA's white paper for state-level guidance.

Why it matters

Bryce Carter, Geothermal Program Manager at the Colorado Energy Office, stated (video published 2026-04-29) that geothermal energy is a promising, critical tool to transform energy systems across Colorado, the U.S., and globally.

Key details

  • Networked geothermal is defined as interconnected geothermal systems spanning multiple buildings; the interview emphasizes geothermal heat pumps' high efficiency and the potential for networked deployments to revolutionize clean heating and cooling.
  • Clean Energy States Alliance (CESA) produced a white paper titled "What States Need to Know About Networked Geothermal" and the Colorado Energy Office is a CESA member; the interview appears on CESA's YouTube channel (video id oDolnNivXrQ).

CESA staff sat down with Bryce Carter, Geothermal Program Manager at the Colorado Energy Office, to talk about the efficiency of geothermal heat pumps and the potential for networked geothermal—interconnected geothermal systems that span across multiple buildings—to revolutionize clean heating and cooling.

"Geothermal energy is really promising to be a critical way that we can help transform our energy systems across our communities, across the United States, and even the world," says Carter.

The Colorado Energy Office is a member of the Clean Energy States Alliance (CESA). CESA is a leading bipartisan U.S. coalition of state energy organizations working together to advance the rapid expansion of clean energy technologies and bring the benefits of clean energy to all.
