* A new report, based on research, has identified 45 potential sites suitable for geothermal plants that could heat up and cool down a large proportion of homes and businesses.
* The report considers that deep geothermal heat can be cost competitive with alternatives.
* It concludes that with the right support, it is possible that by 2050 the UK could have 360 geothermal plants producing 15,000 GWh annually.
* Conservatives seem to welcome the report. Report claims lots of new jobs will be created.

Any idea of what removing such heat from the earth will do ? No doubt it will cause a change to something
If it can be done cheaper than Nuclear it really is a no-brainer IMO.
