Greensleeves to design, build Geothermal Borefield at NASA's John H. Glenn Research Center

WINTER SPRINGS, Fla., – Greensleeves LLC, which designs energy efficient air-conditioning and heating systems for commercial buildings that reduce energy costs by 30 to 50 percent, has earned a second contract to design, engineer and install a geothermal bore field at NASA’s John H. Glenn Research Center near Cleveland.

Sharon Keeran, vice president of operations for Greensleeves LLC, said the project will significantly reduce energy costs for a new 15,470 square foot warehouse receiving building that NASA is building at the Center.

Greensleeves, LLC designs and builds state-of-the-art systems that harvest, store and distribute geothermal energy to substantially reduce fossil fuel energy needs.

“The savings in lower operating and maintenance costs, durability, and energy conservation can exceed the total cost of building construction over the life of a facility,” Keeran said.

Greensleeves is a client company of the University of Central Florida Business Incubation Program located at the incubator in Winter Springs.
