Geothermal systems are a type of heat pump that heats and cools with energy stored from the ground. The GeoVision analysis indicates potential for up to 28 million geothermal heat pumps by 2050. The Rewiring America Pace of Progress report lays out a plan on how to get heat pumps in every home by 2050. roads every year.

We now have the solar, wind and storage building blocks we need to completely replace our global energy system by 2050. How will Walmart, for instance, understand its sprawling inventory of HVAC systems so they can replace oil furnaces with clean energy powered electric heat pumps? A great example is our portfolio company Specifx.
