Summary

Four green energy projects in Yorkshire have been awarded a share of £91m in government funding.

The projects - in Bradford, Goole, Huddersfield and Rotherham - are among seven in the UK to receive cash from the Green Heat Network Fund.

In East Yorkshire, a £12m share of the investment has been given to the Goole District Energy Network, which the council hopes will provide heat to homes and businesses from 2024.

Kirklees Council has also been awarded £8.2m to create the Huddersfield District Energy Network, to provide low-carbon heat and electricity to public and private sector buildings in and around the town centre.

Another ground-breaking scheme is the Langarth Deep Geothermal Heat Network in Redruth, Cornwall.
