A brief description of other sources of building heating not specified above:
Heat is primarily supplied by burning natural gas to make steam. When natural gas is not available (two or three days per year generally), fuel oil is used. A small percentage of heat (percentages not available) is supplied through ground coupled heat pumps, heat recovery chillers, and electrical resistance at the building level.
