Below is a list of a few of the projects that customers have designed with the Ground Loop Design software.
2RW Consultants, Inc (USA).
"The software integrates directly with our load calculation software. The program is capable of modeling different parameters quickly and effectively in order to increase productivity while minimizing design errors associated with repetitive data entry. Recently we used GLD to design a new 80,000sf LEED-certified Gold (pending) Elementary School for Poquoson, located in the Tidewater Region of Virginia. The HVAC system will have over 60 geothermal heat pumps and 144 vertical wells. System design incorporated GLD to maximize energy efficiency while minimizing excess materials, saving fossil fuels and long-term operating costs for the community.

BBA Engineering, P.C. (USA):
"GLD is a must-have tool for an engineering firm involved in the design of geothermal systems. Their online training course is a good, cost-effective solution. We were much more comfortable with field design after the course."

“I was told that GLD was the best design software tool during my CGD training 3 years ago. It’s my daily tool. I’ve used it on residential projects as well as studies for big commercial projects including hotels and hospitals.”
- Anastasios Christoforides, Mechanical & Civil Engineer, Greece
Geothermal International Limited (UK): project link
"GLD is an excellent package with just the right balance of flexibility, robustness, speed and accuracy. Our market-leading business is based in part on the package and the small team who use it. The speed with which a design can be carried out allows us to do a full design for every new enquiry ensuring that everything we do is based on sound engineering from day one. In this way, many mega watts of system designs are carried out by our team each week. I’ve attached some case studies.”

Beijing Geologic Survey Institute (China): project image link
The Beijing Olympic Forest Park consists of 21 office buildings spread out over an area three times as large as New York's Central Park.Over 55000 square meters of office space is going to be heated and cooled with a ground source heat pump system designed by GLD. The system consists of approximately 1500 vertical boreholes.
