such systems in Alaska. Juneau has implemented several systems, one to heat the runways at the airport to melt ice, which displaces 29,500 gallons of fuel per year, and another to help heat the Dimond Park Aquatic Center. Another method of employing GSHP systems combines them with solar thermal systems (see page 32). The GSHP system is used to pump solar thermal energy into the ground during the summer where it is stored. During the winter, when solar energy is not as available, the GSHP system is used to extract the stored heat for use as space heating. This method is being tested in the Alberta, Canada community of Drake Landing where ninety percent of home heating comes from stored solar thermal energy. However, GSHP systems are limited in feasibility by the type of ground. Areas with permafrost, or where removing heat from the ground may cause permafrost heaving or growing, may not be appropriate for GSHP systems. Additionally, because installing heat pumps requires installing either vertical or horizontal pipe, which requires heavy machinery, communities without access to machine equipment may not find these systems financially feasible. Because heat pumps use electricity, the availability of low cost electricity makes them more feasible.  For resources about GSHP, including suppliers and installers, see page 43-45 Regions of Best Implementation Currently, geothermal electrical energy is not widely used in Alaska because of the limitations of the remote locations of the most notable “hot spots”. There are four distinct regions that have great potential for high heat geothermal electricity production; 1) the interior regions running from east to west across the state starting in the Yukon Territory, 2) southeast Alaska, 3) the Wrangell Mountains northeast of Anchorage, and 4) the Ring of Fire chain of volcanoes starting at Mt. Spur and following the Aleutian Island chain. Throughout the rest of the state, low heat geothermal energy for GSHP systems, which uses only the constant temperature of the interior, is available, but may be complicated by the effect that ground heat pumping has on the permafrost layer.  Drake Landing Solar Community http://www.dlsc.ca Sustainable Energy Opportunities: Best Practices for Alaska Tribes Page 36
