We do not burn our heat. We take it from underground.
Geothermal energy is heat from inside the earth's crust, carried to the surface as hot water or steam. Seragro heats its greenhouses with this hot water.
From well to greenhouse in four steps
Drawing from the well
Hot water is pumped to the surface from the well.
Heat transfer
A heat exchanger passes the heat to a clean water circuit that runs through the greenhouses.
Heating the greenhouse
Pipes between the rows warm the plants and the air around them.
Return
The cooled geothermal water is reinjected underground under the terms of our licence.

Why it matters in winter
- Heating without fossil fuelsWe do not burn gas, coal or fuel oil to heat the greenhouses.
- Lower carbonHeating emissions are far lower than in fuel-heated greenhouses.
- Stable temperatureInside stays in the range the plants need while it is below freezing outside.
- Harvest through winterWe can supply fresh tomatoes in months when there is no field crop.
