We are pioneering geothermal energy — clean, naturally occurring, sustainable energy from the rock deep underground.
Eden Geothermal Ltd was set up by three partners: Eden Project, EGS Energy Ltd, and Bestec (UK) Ltd to unlock the geothermal energy deep in the granite beneath Cornwall. We received funding of £16.2m from the European Regional Development Fund, alongside £1.4m from Cornwall Council and £7.0m from institutional investors, to drill a 4.5km deep well at the Eden Project, and which would supply heat to the Eden Project’s famous Biomes, office and its new Growing Point Nursery.
The project was completed in 2023, and represents the first operational deep geothermal system in the UK for 37 years.
You can find out more about what we’ve done, and what it means for the Eden Project here.
