If this were true, people would use miners to heat houses. Everywhere.
It's secured by a mix of things, including expertise, investment and yes, a large energy component. Far from a new thing.
- adrianN 5y agoPeople would use miners to heat homes only if that were cheaper than using other means of heating, such as heat pumps.
