Old Coal Mine Filled With Warm Water Has Been Heating a Town with Green Energy for 6 Months

A Coal Mine in Gateshead, England has been successfully heating the town with Green Energy for six months. The project, led by Gateshead Council, uses a large central heat pump to provide low-carbon heating to 350 buildings, including high-rise apartments, an art gallery, a college, an industrial park, and office buildings. The mine water, heated by the Earth's core, is pumped into home heat pumps to further raise the temperature and then used to heat interior spaces and water supplies. The water is then sent back down to the mine where it naturally reheats. Similar projects have been established in the Netherlands, Spain, and Canada.
