International Ground Source Heat Pump Association
Established in 1987, the International Ground Source Heat Pump Association (IGSHPA) is a nonprofit, membership-based organization that promotes geothermal heat pump technology. It was a outreach unit of the College of Engineering, Architecture and Technology (CEAT) at Oklahoma State University until 2020. In June 2020, the OSU Board of Regents voted to approve a transfer of IGSHPA, its intellectual property, and assets to the control of the Geothermal Exchange Organization (GEO).
Primary Efforts
[edit]IGSHPA is the main organization for establishing standards of practice and standards of design for Geothermal Heat Pump (GHP) systems in the US.[1] Related organizations have been formed in other countries on four continents, including Australia, Canada, China, India, South Korea, and Sweden.
Conferences
[edit]Each year the association hosts an annual conference for people such as manufacturers, contractors, distributors, and drillers.
Standards
[edit]IGSHPA sets and revises standards for Geothermal Heat Pump (GHP) system installs based on ongoing research and field application results.
