Britain is building a village where all the houses will be heated from an abandoned mine

Around 30 schemes for heating from mine water planned across the UK.

Around 30 mine water heating schemes are now planned across the UK. If they succeed, they could help with the UK’s ambition to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2050.

Britain’s need to heat homes and businesses accounts for some 40% of the UK's CO2 emissions.

If mine water schemes were scaled up and replicated globally they could potentially help reduce one of the biggest demands for fossil fuels.
