The recently published Deep #Geothermal#Energy White Paper, The case for deep geothermal energy - unlocking investment at scale in the UK is a very interesting & informative read https://t.co/FkVKTcvaU8 @GELtd Dr Ryan Law & Hazel Farndale were report consultees.
This graphic shows types of #geothermal#energy.
🪨 from shallow to deep
🪨 from closed loop groundwater and mine-water to deep aquifers and granite
🪨 to repurposing oil and gas wells
#GeothermalEnergy is secure, from the ground beneath our feet. Let’s use it.
We encourage you all to ask your MP to support #geothermalenergy in your constituency – check out our map below, showing about a third of UK constituencies have good resources that can help meet #NetZero targets and provide #energysecurity NOW.

A new #whitepaper providing evidence for the acceleration, development and deployment of #deepgeothermal#energy projects in the UK is out now.
We celebrate the direction, but feel that more needs to be done sooner.

The launch of our geothermal plant is a proud moment for Cornwall.
Cornwall is leading the way in alternative energy projects, with wind, lithium and other renewable energies forming a major focus within the county.
@invest_cornwall has produced this film to tell us more.
Introducing our latest campaign ‘The Power of Cornwall’ - which includes a film featuring broadcaster Simon Reeve, and highlights how Cornwall’s location, geology, and rich heritage are all unique assets in the pursuit of net zero. Find out more here: https://t.co/UxLO2GVvR4
As well as providing energy to @EdenProject, we’ll also be supplying a new nursery, Growing Point.
It aims to produce almost 1m plants in its first full year of operation – for the Biomes, Gardens, retail and food for thousands of Eden visitors. Food metres, not food miles!
Did you know #geothermal has minimal visual impact? It’s got the lowest surface footprint of any energy source, and no buildings higher than 10m. Check out our infographic below.

@thinkgeoenergy Thank you for sharing the news. It's a milestone in our journey, which began over 10 years ago, and most importantly - a real landmark moment for renewable energy in the UK.
Watch this film about yesterday's landmark moment for renewable energy as we opened the Eden geothermal plant - it's now producing heat, which will be supplied to the @EdenProject biomes and our new nursery, Growing Point.

A landmark moment for renewable energy took place at Eden today! 🔥🪨👉🌱 Geothermal energy will be supplying heat to our Biomes and our new nursery, Growing Point.
We were delighted to welcome some special guests on site today for the opening of our #geothermal plant - the UK's first in 37 years - which is now generating heat.
A great day for #RenewableEnergy in the UK - thank you to all who came to the launch. @EdenProject@cioslep
The heat is on! We’re delighted to announce a landmark moment for #RenewableEnergy took place today at the @EdenProject - as the UK’s first operating deep #geothermal heating plant since 1986 is launched and now generating heat.
