Project Summary / Description:
GeoAirCon came into being as necessity since the cost of conventional air-conditioning was simply un-affordable. Though officially incorporate in 2022 the work for the MVP and R&D had started in early 2017 at NIC, Islamabad by the Geoaircon team. Additionally the un-sustainable nature of Air-conditioning units makes it unsustainable especially if would want to provide comfort to all those who need as currently less than 20% of the households have ACs if scaled to the total population this becomes a huge problem. whereas the need for air-conditioning is at the highest ever. It is estimated by the IEA that the need for Air-conditioning world wide will increase by almost 4 times, thus it is very important that this expansion be a sustainable one. to avoid the vicious feedback loop of Air-conditioning and climate change.

How Project Affects Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions:
Replaces/avoids GHGs (e.g., projects that replace sources of GHGs, such as the burning of fossil fuels for electricity, heat, transport, or other energy uses), Reduces GHGs (e.g., projects that reduce sources of GHGs, such as through efficiency or other changes in consumption)
Best Estimate of GHG Avoidance/Reduction of This Project (Tonnes CO2 Equivalent/Year):
Impact on Underrepresented Groups:
As economically marginalised demographic is predominantly effected due to rising energy costs many have to let go the comfort of a good nights sleep and bare excruciating heat without air-conditioning as they simply can't afford it. The impact is even higher on women and children as they usually spend more time indoors and have limited options to keep themselves cool in the summer due to high cost of electricity and warm in the winter due to severe shortage of natural gas.

Mission Statement:
GeoAirCon has innovated upon the tried and tested ground sourced (geothermal) heat pump technology to make it suitable in terms of both cost and climate for the emerging economies through retrofitting and compressor less application. We are catering to the needs of the emerging world (Asia-pacific, south Asia, Africa)especially to those countries with hot and humid climates, where much of expected demand for air-conditioning is projected, as reported by the IEA the need for Air-conditioning can reach up to 14 billion devices by 2050 from the current 3.6 billion this transition needs to be a green one. Our first large scale implementation of the technology was at Namal university hostels near Lawa. A 20 ton geothermal air-conditioning system as a part of low cost air-conditioning system for 100+ students. As the temperatures reach as much as 52 C in the summers and 5 C in the winters.
