The paper provides a historical perspective of geothermal heat pump technology as it evolved in the United States. It discusses the development and impact of materials specifications, equipment specification, design tools, system performance benchmarks, codes and standards, and public outreach from a variety of entities that have combined to result in design approaches by trusted engineering professionals and building owners. This paper explores the pivotal way points in the development of the industry over the past 70 years. It also presents examples of simple and efficient installations, both residential and nonresidential, and the design of ground-source heat pumps, which are one of the best pathways to achieving net zero energy buildings and homes.
