We do not republish articles from The Scotsman. Our findings are below, each quoting the words it is about. Read the full article on the outlet's own site.
Read the original article on scotsman.com (opens in a new tab)The Scotsman reports evidence given to Holyrood's climate action committee that heat from AI data centres could be piped into heat networks to warm homes in Edinburgh and Glasgow. It attributes the proposals to named witnesses and notes the concerns over the facilities' energy and water use. Nothing in it misleads the reader.
“with concerns over their energy and water use”
The article does not present data centres as a pure benefit. It tells the reader why the planning applications are contested before it reports the case for reusing their heat.
“which could be key to decarbonising heating systems across Scotland”
The article states what heat networks are for, so the reader understands the climate purpose of the proposal rather than seeing it only as a planning detail.
“Simon Kerr, head of heat networks at SAV-Systems”
The article names the witness and his role, so the reader can see who is making the case for data centre zoning and from what position.
