Summary
Dead heating bills during energy crises hurt families, but CERN’s ingenious heat recovery system turns physics research into home comfort. The Large Hadron Collider, famous for smashing particles at near-light speed, now channels its waste heat directly into Ferney-Voltaire’s district heating network. Instead of venting thermal energy into the atmosphere like a giant industrial exhale, two 5-megawatt heat exchangers capture hot water from the LHC’s cooling systems and route it to warm several thousand homes.
