Episode 030 | Matthew Tokarik: Geothermal will be a part of our Green Future

In this episode our Twenty First Century Cleantech contributor, Connor Reed, talks with Matthew Tokarik, President of Subterra Renewables, a renewable energy developer who designs, builds, owns, and operates geothermal heating and cooling systems across North America, with the goal of significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions and ultimately reaching Net-Zero building operation. Matt has previous experience working as a Building Energy Consultant developing whole building energy models, conducting energy audits, and creating carbon reduction strategies for new and existing buildings and building portfolios. He is also a Sessional Instructor at Ryerson University, where he leads courses and seminars in sustainability, building science, and energy modeling.

In this episode we talk about the world of geothermal heating and cooling, and why it’s going to be one of the fastest growing industries in the green building space over the next few decades.

I hope you enjoy the conversation!
