CIoS LEP commissioned The South West Geothermal Alliance to carry out a full review of potential mine water heat resources and provide a high-quality data set of mine workings with the potential to supply useful amounts of heat, suitable for the development of the LAEP scenario modelling.
This Briefing Note provides a non-technical introduction to geothermal energy and mine water geothermal concepts, and summaries the findings of the resource assessment.
