Technology and policy innovation have come together to allow homeowners to utilize clean energy inside the home. We&#8217;re excited to continue our work to help people increase the comfort and health of their homes while limiting harmful emissions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<cite>Michael Sachse, CEO of Dandelion Energy.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Geothermal reduces home greenhouse gas emissions by as much as 80% compared to old-fashioned systems by removing the need to burn fossil fuels in the home and providing much more efficient air-conditioning. Homes that combine Dandelion systems with clean energy&#8211; such as rooftop solar&#8211;can become net-zero homes. A geothermal heat pump can be twice as efficient as other non-fossil systems, including air source heat pumps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information on Dandelion&#8217;s climate impact, and to follow along please make sure to visit Dandelion&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/dandelionenergy.com\/environmental-impact\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Environmental Impact<\/a> page.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;re proud to announce that our customers have surpassed&nbsp;170,000 tons of carbon dioxide pollution avoided.
