Geothermal Energy

Visitors control a geothermal heating/cooling system to see how heat is transferred from its source through heat pumps and heat exchangers, and ultimately how a building is heated and supplied with electricity. The heat exchange system and electricity distribution are represented by LED lighting. Visitors change seasons (winter to summer and vice versa) represented on a moving disk (graphic backdrop) that switches the system from heating to cooling (and vice versa) to match seasonal weather conditions.
