Plans to create the country's first geothermal power station, in the heart of the Cornish countryside, could move a step closer today if councillors agree to visit the proposed development site. Renewable power company Geothermal Engineering Ltd wants to tap into hot rocks technology as part of a 40 million pound plan for United Downs, St Day, Cornwall.

This newsletter is assembled by Robin Curtis who has a vested interest in this technology and currently works for EarthEnergy Limited - a UK promoter of ground source heat pumps. Notwithstanding - this informal newsletter is intended to provide a focus for all UK activity on ground coupled, water source heating and cooling technology for buildings. This is variously referred to as earth coupled systems, geothermal heat pumps, earth energy systems, closed loop ground source heat pumps etc.
If you have any comments or contributions please do not hesitate to contact the author. Provided that items that you wish to submit are of relevance to the technology I will endeavour to incorporate them as quickly as possible - other commitments permitting.
