Eagle County has introduced a new geothermal heating and cooling system. The system is located beneath the Eagle County building in Eagle and replaced a failing boiler. It is part of the county's effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

The $14 million system began operating on March 31 and has been functioning well. County officials and project workers gathered to mark the occasion. Further details about the system and its expected impact are available from Eagle County.

The geothermal system is intended to help the county achieve its greenhouse gas reduction goals. For more information, readers can consult the Eagle County government or the original source.
