The launch of our geothermal plant is a proud moment for Cornwall.
Cornwall is leading the way in alternative energy projects, with wind, lithium and other renewable energies forming a major focus within the county.
@invest_cornwall has produced this film to tell us more.

As well as providing energy to @EdenProject, we’ll also be supplying a new nursery, Growing Point.
It aims to produce almost 1m plants in its first full year of operation – for the Biomes, Gardens, retail and food for thousands of Eden visitors. Food metres, not food miles!
