Abstract
The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection’s (NJDEP) Ground Source Heat Pump Baseline Report was developed with the objective of establishing foundational information to inform future policies supporting use of ground source heat pumps (GSHP) in New Jersey. This report leverages historic NJDEP GSHP well records, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), stakeholder surveys, informational interviews, and emissions reduction estimates to investigate deployment, climate mitigation benefits, and the barriers to adoption of GSHP technology. In doing so, this report illustrates trends in GSHP installations over time, identifies locations of systems and the building sectors they serve, quantifies emissions reduction benefits, and integrates input from GSHP developers to put forward strategic policy recommendations.
