The second event that we would like to recommend is part of the Clean Tech Thought Leader Series, a public program at the Harvard Club of San Francisco:
Harvard Club of San Francisco’s Ground, Water & Ice
Join the Harvard Club of San Francisco and Dennis Murphy, President of GroundSource Geo and recent winner of The Clean Tech Open, as he directs a panel of energy innovators aimed at new solutions to providing heating, cooling and hot water. Murphy will present a crash course on ground source heat pumps (GSHP), how ice storage and water gridding can greatly reduce energy demand throughout the built environment, as well as various uses of thermal transfer of energy including how ice rinks can heat your home. He will also present findings from his California Energy Commission study, Project Negatherm.
Attendance costs $15 for members of HCSF, Stanford SF, Ivy Plus, HBSA/NC and Columbia (members can also bring a guest for the cost of the member price), while non-members will pay $25, including dinner.
