We are Redefining Heat for a Sustainable Future
Business-as-usual no longer exists: we are moving to a new paradigm for sources of energy - and energy systems - to power our world.
Genius Energy Lab designs large-scale ground source heat pump systems that will redefine our relationship with heating, decoupling us from legacy energy sources and outmoding energy markets that are no longer fit for purpose.

Our Mission
Our mission is to be leaders in ground source heat pump system design and set the industry benchmark for outstanding value, customer service and green energy advocacy.
We aim to do good:
By championing the adoption of ground source heat pumps through educating stakeholders, driving policy change, and pursuing sustainable practices in the energy sector.
By delivering a supportive and fulfilling working experience for our staff and giving back to the communities we serve.
Our Purpose
To safeguard our planet’s future and inspire hope for generations to come.
To create a legacy of sustainability—a healthier, more resilient Earth for all.
To protect and preserve our planet for future generations.
