PLANS for the UK's first electricity producing geothermal power plant were announced last night.
The project, a joint partnership between the Eden Project and EGS Energy, could potentially produce enough carbon neutral electricity from hot underground granite to supply ten per cent of the UK's electricity. The plant would be built in Cornwall and be used to power Eden's site near St Austell.
