3
History of Hunt Country Vineyards 42 Years of Thought Award Winning Wine Emphasis on Local Building design for energy reduction Sustainability is 1 st thought Geothermal for cost savings Plans for wind and Solar http://www.winesandvines.com/template.cfm?section=features&content=136585&ftitle=Growing%20Sustainably
4
Geothermal as replacement for propane and oil One main system for 4 buildings Return on Investment Reliability of system Flexibility of Design Vision
5
NYSERDA – AEEP R17 Grant – 75% funding ESS – Design/engineering/support BMI – Geothermal Drilling/Install DEI – Installation, service MG – Coordination/communication Hunt Country – Initiative and willingness to say “YES!” Players
6
ESS DESIGN Common Loop Design “Node” based distribution of Antifreeze 3 Heat Pump Banks, 6 Total Heat Pumps Piping between buildings Control Strategy Possibility of Expansion Plan
7
Process – The Source Location of Wells – 8 Wells, 400’ deep Drilled at rate of 6.5’/Min 1.25” HDPE, Thermal Grout Approximately 21 Tons of Capacity Completed in just under 3 Days Average EWT is currently 46 Degrees
8
The Well Field serves a single GV Series Flow Center by Phoenix Energy which in turn serves 6 total water to water heat pumps scattered over an acre of land Process – Source Distribution Piping Size varied between 3” and 2” to reduce pressure drop and reduce pumping energy Each “NODE” is served by zone valves A call for heating/cooling opens a Valve The flow center maintains the right pressure to provide the correct flow
9
Two 4 ton W/W Heat Pumps Wilo VFD Pumps Storage Tank Control Process – Tasting Building Mechanical
10
Building served by existing under floor Radiant Addition of High Wall mounted Mulitaqua fan coils – 5 Total Replaced 20 yr old boiler, 4 Mitsubishi Mini split Systems Ability to Cool space with 75+ People – unable to do so with Air Source previously Process – Tasting Room Distribution of Energy
11
Space used as storage for Wine, Bottling Facility, Red Wine Fermentation Control Two 4 Ton W/W Zone Valve for “on/off” Distributes to 2 air handlers – IN TWO DIFFERENT BUILDINGS! Domestic Hot Water for cleaning Process – Bottling and Storage Mechanical
12
Process – Bottling and Storage Distribution Photo slide in of Building 2 Photo slide in of Building 3
13
Process – Bottling and Storage Distribution continued... Photo slide in of Red Wine Vat Photo slide in of Valve Process We were asked a question during the installation process “Can we heat our red wine to start Fermentation?”
14
Process – Production Facility
15
Radiant Slab Air Handler Domestic Hot Water Future Use will include Chiller Replacement Process – Production Facility
16
NYSERDA Grant required M&V for release of Funds Savings in First Year of Use = $12,000.00+ Savings in Second Year of Use = $14,000.00+ Total Electric Consumption of Property was actually reduced in 1 st year and stayed the same for 2 nd year. Total Electric Cost in year 1 for property was $24,000.00. Year 2 was $30,000 for property for same KW usage but 23% hike in rates Results
17
Spring of 2015 Brings the next Phase of Hunt Country Vineyards journey 100KW of PV will be installed to offset 80% of the properties usage Next Step
18
Future is in this room 6 examples of what geo is capable of Where it goes and what we do with it….. Conclusion
