gonna need an explanation for this one Frank ?? they blowing an iced river or what ?
not a bad guess thenAnnual bursting of ice in a river in Kazakhstan..
To prevent ice dams.
When the ice start to break up in the spring?
In the big scheme of things £50m for contant power generation doesn't seem too bad when compared to offshore wind. According to google (so take with a pinch of salt) powering 10,000 homes needs 10 to 15 megawatts. One single large offshore turbine could produce 8mw sometimes and can cost £30 million.This is potentially quite a groundbreaker (pardon the pun) 15 years of money into a project with no return (yet) must have taken some big balls and a lot of negotiating.

This is just GSHP though ? Pulling a few C (Low temp) out for for house heating.![]()
Cardiff housing estate to get geothermal heat network
Wates Residential has contracted UK Power Solutions (UKPS) to install a ground source heat network for a new housing estate in Cardiff.www.theconstructionindex.co.uk
" UKPS and its subcontractor Rendesco are putting in a low-emission ground source heat network comprising a centralised energy centre, 47 boreholes to extract renewable geothermal energy, and individual heat interface units in 235 new homes. .......... developer, Wates Residential will recover almost half of the capital costs of the heat network through forward-funded rebate payments, removing a potential financial barrier to choosing the lowest-emission heating technology. "and who will be providing the forward funded rebates then ???????

The Cornwall scheme is running with a DT of 80C which is crazy — and delivering 190c. That’s a deep hole ..
My guess is a loan from a specialist that will provide the capital knowing the repayments will be met by the rebates.and who will be providing the forward funded rebates then ???????
That was the first thing that went through my mind also.Druuuuuid!
