Hula is a co-working and innovation campus of reimagined industrial buildings (a former pizza oven factory) on the shore of Lake Champlain. Since 2021, Hula has been heating and cooling year-round with a geothermal loop system.

Hula’s thermal network is a great example of how well ground source heat pump loops work—even here in our colder climate—and why Vermonters are increasingly excited about their potential.

Alaina’s recap of her tour is informative, fun, and engaging. Watch the video and share it with your friends, energy committee, town leaders, etc. to learn what a working thermal network can look like and why it’s a clean energy win!
