I am planning to use geothermal energy for my house construction next year... can someone get in touch for experience sharing?

Hello,
geothermal energy is a great solution. A friend of mine had it installed. He basically heats for free, which is fantastic considering today's prices for gas and oil. Both are unlikely to get any cheaper.

Hello,
I think it's great that today you can choose from so many different types of heating systems. If you want to do something for the environment, you should consider either a solar thermal system or a heat pump. I even believe that you can apply for a subsidy for this, so you might want to check on that.

Hi,
I have also heard about subsidies before, but isn’t it the case that you only receive them if you install a solar system? If there are subsidies for geothermal energy as well, that would be great, because I am also considering installing something like that. I need to find out about this right away.

Does anyone know about the subsidies?

Do I have to install underfloor heating, or are regular radiators acceptable?

If necessary, can the heating be warmed up quickly (for example, unexpected guests)?

Hello everyone,
unfortunately, I have no knowledge about geothermal energy, but I will keep following the topic because I want to buy a house, and soon the question of the best heating system for the house will come up. And it should definitely be environmentally friendly.
Best regards
