Breaking new ground

Exlterra is pleased to announce the appointment of its first certified GEPS installer in Canada, marking a key milestone in the expansion of GEPS across North America. Terravital, based in the Greater Toronto Area, will cover Southern Ontario and bring GEPS® (Groundwater Energy Passive System) to one of the most dynamic and rapidly growing regions in Canada.

Happy Earth Day. We mean it. Since our founding, Exlterra has been guided by a straightforward premise: the best solutions work alongside natural systems rather than in opposition to them.

GEPS® reframes the entire relationship between a resident's stormwater complaint and what a municipality can offer in response. Instead of telling a homeowner that the system cannot accept their water, municipalities can point to a solution that resolves the problem on-site, without adding a single gallon to the storm sewer system.

A passive, maintenance-free technology from Exlterra called the Groundwater Energy Passive System (GEPS®), addresses both of solar's major soil-related headaches: stormwater runoff driven by construction compaction and decreased permeable surface area, and long-term structural damage caused by uneven moisture distribution around panel footings.

If you've ever noticed cracks snaking across a basement wall, doors that suddenly won't close right, or a driveway that's heaved up in the middle of nowhere, you may have experienced one of the most costly and least-talked-about problems in construction: expansive clay heave. It's a problem that quietly destroys billions of dollars in homes, commercial buildings, and infrastructure every year.

The hidden costs of waiting for radioactivity to fade away add up fast. So do the decades it takes for garbage to decompose in landfills. Exlterra's NSPS technology offers a practical solution to both problems, potentially revolutionizing how industries handle radioactive waste storage.

NSPS bridges the gap between particle physics and practical environmental cleanup. For years, positrons were mainly useful in research labs and hospitals. The idea that you could use them to clean up contaminated soil is relatively new, but it doesn't require any new physics or speculative science. It's just using what we already know about how antimatter behaves, how positrons interact with regular matter, and how energy affects radioactive atoms.

NSPS is a passive, energy-free system that targets contaminants at the atomic level, transforming harmful substances into safe, stable forms within the soil matrix.

At Exlterra, we’re proud to be applying GEPS (Groundwater Energy Passive System) to solve real, persistent challenges in stormwater infrastructure — not just on golf courses, but in critical detention ponds that struggle with standing water.

Exlterra is proud to announce the installation of GEPS on the first three greens at Golf de Neuchâtel, marking the beginning of a full deployment across all 18 greens over the next two years.
