Scientists say a nearby lake, river, or sea could heat homes in winter and cool them in summer, and may one day serve 18% of Europe’s homes
Europe's water bodies offer a new renewable energy source. Lakes, rivers, and coastal waters can power heating and cooling for homes. This technology uses water-source heat pumps. It could meet the needs of nearly 18 percent of European households. This offers a clean alternative to fossil fuels. The research highlights untapped potential across the continent.
