The man-made body of water and the village that surrounds it will be entirely energy self-sufficient.
. The water will be kept at 102 degrees Fahrenheit year-round, which should be especially nice during the winter, when temperatures are regularly below freezing at night.The geoLagoon will be heated by a “huge Thermos” heating system. The setup makes use of geothermal, biomass, photovoltaic and solar systems to create heat, which is then stored in a thermal reservoir beneath the lagoon.
“This is one of the keys to our recipe,” geoLagon CEO Louis Massicotte told the website. “I have a patent pending on this huge Thermos under our pool.”The lagoon will be surrounded by clusters of solar-powered cottages. The project’s developers envision geoLagon becoming tourist destination, so the chalets will be available for short-term rentals. About 80 percent of them have already been spoken for by investors.
Construction of geoLagon will consist of three stages, the first of which will begin in March of next year. Initially, half the cottages will be built, then the lagoon will be constructed and then the rest of the cottages will be completed. The entire project should take about 18 months to complete.
