Abstract
Disclosed is a system for optimizing energy utilization in a multi-building development or community. In an embodiment, the system has a passive energy loop comprising a continuous liquid filled pipe. A plurality of energy transfer points connect a plurality of buildings in the development onto the passive energy loop. A system control center adapted to control the plurality of energy transfer points to extract excess thermal energy from or input required thermal energy to each of the plurality of buildings, thereby to optimize the energy utilization and minimize greenhouse gases produced by the system.

A system for optimizing energy utilization in a multi-building development, comprising:
- a passive energy loop comprising a continuous fluid filled pipe;
- one or more thermal energy transfer centers connecting each of a plurality of buildings in the multi-building development onto the passive energy loop;
- and
- a system control center adapted to control the plurality of thermal energy transfer centers to extract excess thermal energy from or input required thermal energy to each one of the plurality of buildings, thereby to buffer the temperature differentials, improve energy utilization, and reduce greenhouse gases produced by the plurality of buildings in the multi-building development.
