Green energy is our future. Recently gas supply scares mean we are not 100% energy capable. Geothermal energy is 24/7. Not depending on sun or wind. Installed can run for 100 years almost maintenance free and not require much pumps capacity. In COP26 the UK could commit 'cross party' to this being the focus of investment creating jobs and the global expertise on this industry. These don't leave us with unsightly installations (solar/wind) 1 system every 60km sq. in the UK would power all homes.
