Forget the boilers! Thousands of homes across the UK are about to get their heating from a surprising source – server rooms!
A whopping £65 million government bonanza will fund five brand-new eco-friendly heating projects. The most eye-catching? Using waste heat from computer data centres to keep homes warm!
Imagine data whizzing around keeping you toasty! This world-first scheme in West London will use waste heat from computer data centres to warm over 10,000 homes and businesses. That’s cutting-edge AND green!
But that’s not all! This cash injection will also see cash pumped into other green heating projects around the country. From solar-powered heat pumps to reusing underground heat, these projects are set to create thousands of new jobs.
| Heat Minister Claire Coutinho says these projects are putting the UK at the forefront of cutting carbon emissions. It’s about “families across the country…warming their homes with low-carbon, recycled heat.” |
| Lord Callanan, another big cheese in the energy world, echoed this, saying it’s a glimpse into the future and shows how innovative Britain can be. |
This is a big win for the environment and your wallet. Not only will these projects cut carbon emissions, but by utilizing waste heat from computer data centres, they’re also expected to bring down energy bills. It’s a win-win!
