The ban was added to the Energy Bill by peers in the House of Lords.
Ministers also plan to drop changes to the bill which would have enabled small community energy projects to sell electricity directly to local homes"

Coal mines can be transformed into giant green batteries. Engineers have developed a system that uses water and gravity to store and release energy. This could help balance the grid and reduce fossil fuel dependence.

A project is underway in the east of the UK to explore the geothermal potential of disused coal mines to heat UK homes and businesses.
Jeremy Crooks, head of innovation at the Coal Authority: “The abandoned coal mines in the UK present an enormous opportunity to the UK as a source of geothermal energy”.

How old #coal #mines can help the #climate
As the world rolls back on using coal to extract energy, it leaves behind empty #coalmines. The BBC reports that the UK is actively using these coal mines as a source of #geothermal energy.

NSW state election is this Saturday. The current (outgoing?) Coalition government has:
- approved many new/expanded #CoalMines with catastrophic #ClimateImpacts. Their record on biodiversity is even worse: record land clearing, #koalakiller, brumbies, mass fish kills. Not to mention #WaterMismanagement (& #corruption).
- undermined #CivilLiberties to an alarming extent. Compare anti-protest laws and #NSWpolice powers now vs a decade ago.
- corruption scandals aplenty, going right to the top: all four premiers subject to credible accusations of serious misconduct. Two premiers & a deputy premier have resigned as the direct result of #ICAC investigations. Some of them have openly defended #pork-barrelling, which ICAC labels corrupt behaviour.
- privatised the electricity grid & large chunks of public transport. Overseen the creeping #privatisation of health + education, putting crucial infrastructure + services in the hands of #plutocracy, subject to the pernicious effects of the profit motive. All these areas have seen significant erosion of public well-being + satisfaction, with widespread industrial action one symptom of many.
- close ties—philosophically, personally + practically—to the federal #Coalition who finally got the boot last year.

#CoalMining is horrible. We have green steel production. Spend mine development money on improving green steel production. we don’t need coking coal. despicable plans for polluting coal mines. Hiding science data that argues against #Alberta #coalmines.
