Dear Readers

What an incredible couple of months it has been for me since joining IGSHPA! My name is Lisa Lipe, and in June, I joined the IGSHPA team to bring back GeoOutlook E-Magazine, conduct grant research and writing, and assist with administrative duties. I am immensely grateful to Executive Director, Jeff Hammond and the entire IGSHPA team for granting me this opportunity to witness and learn from the unwavering dedication within this industry. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to all our esteemed readers and advertisers, whose support has been invaluable. Exciting times lie ahead as we announce some remarkable changes and opportunities at the International Ground Source Heat Pump Association. Our focus is on elevating our content and fostering greater engagement throughout the year. We are thrilled to share these advancements with you and can’t wait to embark on this journey together. Thank you for being a part of our thriving industry!

Our inaugural edition of GeoOutlook E-Magazine is now available! Sincere appreciation is extended to BNP Media and its personnel for their unyielding assistance in making this possible. The revival of GeoOutlook has us brimming with excitement! While this is our sole release for 2023, we have even more in store for 2024, with two publications slated for January and July. We currently intend to publish two magazines annually, with a near-term return to quarterly editions (three per year). Our publications thrive on these articles, as they bring forth the voices of those on the front lines, experts, and visionaries, creating a rich tapestry of insights and experiences. With a multitude of perspectives and firsthand expertise, our magazine stands as an invaluable resource for Geothermal Industry professionals. We wholeheartedly encourage each of you to think about and contribute an article to this growing industry by sharing your valuable expertise and knowledge in the field. In each magazine, we feature three articles, ranging from 1200 to 1600 words, providing ample space for in-depth exploration. To make the reading experience even more enriching, articles may incorporate captivating visuals such as pictures, illustrations, and graphics. If you are interested in submitting an article for our future GeoOutlook Publications, we would love to hear from you. Please send articles and inquiries to info@igshpa.org or reach out to me directly at llipe@igshpa.org.

Together, let’s advance the Geothermal Industry and make a lasting impact!
