Studies are being done to assess the viability of a geothermal district heating project only 25 miles away from Balmoral.

Interesting news from UK where a geothermal district heating project is being studied and “set to roll out in Royal Deeside”. In case this does not ring a bell to you, the location is only 25 miles away from Balmoral, Her Majesty’s summer residence. According to local news, the geothermal project “”will initially heat homes in the town of Banchory, Aberdeenshire, and if successful could be extended to the “wider area””.

This project is part of the five projects in Scotland that were granted funds to make viability studies for geothermal district heating earlier this same year.
