A Map of Geothermal Energy Projects in the United Kingdom

It seem that lots of people are unaware of all the past, present and future projects researching and even actually producing geothermal energy in the United Kingdom. This even seems to include journalists at quality newspapers such as The Independent!

To make life easier for other researchers into this currently hot topic we've added another interactive map to our resources section. This one reveals the locations of a variety of "deep" geothermal energy projects around the UK, starting with the research project at Rosemanowas Quarry (more often spelled Rosemanowes) in Cornwall way back in the late 1970s.

Note that our map doesn't currently include the location of the "Pioneering Geothermal Energy Project" in Manchester announced last week by GT Energy, since despite having called their PR agency this morning I still have no evidence for its precise location beyond the "Devonshire Street" mentioned on the GT Energy website.

If you have any information on this project, or indeed any others that are missing from our map, please do get in touch.
