Great British Energy BillContribution
We have seen across Europe how deep geothermal is contributing to this challenge. It heats more than a quarter of a million homes in Paris, and the French Government aim to increase the number of schemes by 40% by 2030. Munich is pouring in €1 billion through to 2035 to develop deep geothermal and make the city’s heating carbon neutral. More widely, Germany is already producing more than 353 MWh annually and the Government are targeting at least 100 new geothermal projects.
