A 5-kilometre-deep well is supplying heat to the Eden Project visitor attraction in Cornwall, but despite the UK’s significant resources, it lags behind other European countries in exploiting geothermal energy
The first new deep geothermal heating plant in the UK since 1987 has opened today at the Eden Project in Cornwall, with its developers hopeful the scheme will help to inspire a new wave of geothermal energy projects across the country.
Eden’s new geothermal well, which stretches almost 5 kilometres beneath Earth’s surface, is now pumping heat into the tourist site’s famous geodesic “biomes” and a new greenhouse, developers said on 19 June.The project has taken more than a decade to deliver, with Brexit, covid-19 and supply chain issues all causing delays. A series of seismic tremors also halted testing on the new well in March 2022.
