ARLINGTON, Virginia\u2014April 2, 2025\u2014<\/b>Dandelion Energy<\/span><\/a>, the nation’s leading home geothermal heating and cooling company, today announced they are partnering with Lennar Corporation (NYSE: LEN and LEN. B), one of the nation\u2019s leading homebuilders, on one of the most significant residential geothermal deployments in US history.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"
The partnership establishes a framework for making geothermal heating and cooling the standard in new home construction.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Over the next two years, Dandelion’s geothermal systems will be integrated into 1,500+ new Lennar Colorado homes. Geothermal offers the lowest monthly energy bills for homeowners. They are expected to save approximately $30 million over the next 20 years, when compared to heating with air-source heat pumps.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dandelion Energy, a leader in residential geothermal systems, has developed a streamlined installation process that makes it easier and more affordable than ever for builders and homeowners to benefit from geothermal heat pumps. By eliminating the need for outdoor AC units and traditional heating systems, Dandelion\u2019s technology enhances home efficiency and durability. Homeowners in participating communities will enjoy the peace of mind that comes with a low-maintenance, resilient<\/a>, and emissions-free heating and cooling solution.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis partnership with Lennar sets a new benchmark for affordable, energy efficient, and high-quality home heating and cooling,\u201d said Daniel Yates, CEO at Dandelion Energy. \u201cWe\u2019re excited to bring our geothermal technology into a high-production environment and accelerate our efforts to deliver the unparalleled comfort, performance, and cost savings of geothermal heat pumps to Colorado homeowners.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOur collaboration with Dandelion Energy brings innovative geothermal technology into our homes\u2014offering Colorado homeowners a cleaner, more efficient way to heat and cool their homes, while reducing long-term costs and future-proofing their investment,\u201d said Stuart Miller, Executive Chairman and Co-CEO of Lennar. \u201cIt supports our broader commitment to making high-quality, attainable housing more accessible.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Benefits of Geothermal<\/h2>\n

Geothermal heat pumps dramatically lower home energy use and costs. Due to their superior efficiency, geothermal heat pumps also significantly reduce peak electric demand. Widespread adoption of geothermal could eliminate the need for 24,500 miles of new grid transmission lines. This would be the equivalent of crossing the United States eight times. (According to the Department of Energy)<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cGeothermal energy – the heat beneath our feet – is a clean energy option that will help save Coloradans money and protect our state for future generations. I\u2019m very excited that Dandelion is building on Colorado\u2019s leadership on geothermal by connecting more than 1,500 Colorado homes to low-cost heating and cooling. It\u2019s good for Coloradans, for our air quality, and our economy,\u201d said Governor Polis.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cGeothermal heat pumps are extremely efficient at both heating and cooling, while reducing emissions, easing demand on the electric grid, and saving residents thousands of dollars on energy costs,\u201d said Colorado Energy Office Executive Director Will Toor. \u201cEnsuring affordable access to geothermal heating and cooling is essential to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, and we\u2019re excited to be part of such a huge effort to bring this technology to so many new Colorado homes.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Incentives & Programs<\/h2>\n

This initiative will benefit from Colorado\u2019s state tax credit and Xcel Energy\u2019s geothermal and all-electric new construction programs. With incentives, the up-front cost of geothermal heat pumps is significantly reduced for homebuilders like Lennar, enabling broader adoption and significant benefits to Colorado residents.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis ground-source heat pump project is an example of how our Clean Heat Plan and our electrification strategy for new home developments are delivering on our shared climate goals and keeping bills low,\u201d said Robert Kenney, President of Xcel Energy-CO. \u201cOur customer options, including rebates, are designed to lower the cost of highly efficient electric technologies for customers interested in all-electric new homes, as well as replacing their natural gas furnaces to reduce the use of natural gas in existing homes. We\u2019ll continue working with the Governor\u2019s office, the state, local governments and industry partners to raise awareness for the new programs and rebates available to our customers to lower their own emissions and keep their energy bills low.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cColorado is leading the nation in the transition to clean energy, and today\u2019s groundbreaking marks a major step forward in that effort. With this investment, we are not only reducing carbon emissions but helping to lower energy costs for families. Colorado is proving that we can fight climate change, create good-paying jobs, and ensure a healthier future for all,\u201d said Senator Michael Bennet, Senator John Hickenlooper, and Congressman Jason Crow.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
