UK's first geothermal plant turns on today A first-of-its-kind plant in Cornwall takes water and heat from 3 miles underground to drive turbines, generating energy for 10,000 homes. “Like a nuclear power station underground, we’re just tapping the heat,” says Ryan Law CEO of Geothermal Engineering.

“For every one unit of energy you put in, you get two units out.” Air conditioning, effectively heat pump technology, will be vital as extreme heat becomes more common. Climate advisers say 9 in 10 UK homes aren’t built for rising heat, and fewer than 5% have air conditioning. @eciu.net

"If you can produce your own energy, you bring down your bill." Homegrown energy is the best way to insulate ourselves from global fossil fuel shocks, as has happened after the Iran conflict, says Electrify Britain CEO Camilla Born on GB News.

" You cut your bills by around £500 a year if you install a heat pump." Welcoming the government's Warm Homes Plan, Electrify Britain CEO Camilla Born tells BBC News Talking Business' @benthompsontv.bsky.social heat pumps are simply a "better heating system".

"If we start preparing now to think about transport, offices and homes in temperatures exceeding 40 degrees, we can avoid major problems. But we do have to start thinking of it now," says @ucl.ac.uk's Professor Ilan Kelman.

"We don't want to be in this situation again." We have to bank the learnings from the previous energy crisis, oil and gas dependency is spiking prices. Camilla Born, CEO of Electrify UK tells GB News.
