<h2 id="history">History</h2> <p>The clay pit in which the project is sited was in use for over 160 years.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:4" href="#fn:4"><sup>4</sup></a> In 1981, the pit was used by the <a href="/facts/BBC/qFateIz8">BBC</a> as the planet surface of Magrathea in the TV series <i><a href="/facts/The_Hitchhiker%2527s_Guide_to_the_Galaxy_(TV_series)/QJYqIPeG">the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy</a></i>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:5" href="#fn:5"><sup>5</sup></a> By the mid-1990s the pit was all but exhausted.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:6" href="#fn:6"><sup>6</sup></a> </p><p>The initial idea for the project dates back to 1996, with construction beginning in 1998. The work was hampered by torrential rain in the first few months of the project, and parts of the pit flooded as it sits 15 m (49 ft) below the water table.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:7" href="#fn:7"><sup>7</sup></a> </p><p>The first part of the Eden Project, the visitor centre, opened to the public in May 2000. The first plants began arriving in September of that year,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:8" href="#fn:8"><sup>8</sup></a> and the full site opened on 17 March 2001. </p><p>To counter criticism from environmental groups, the Eden Project committed to investigate a rail link to the site.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:9" href="#fn:9"><sup>9</sup></a> The rail link was never built, and car parking on the site is still funded from revenue generated from general admission ticket sales. A bus service links the site to <a href="/facts/St_Austell/w5Mv0LAr">St Austell</a> railway station, on the <a href="/facts/Cornish_Main_Line/eaRF2sJ3">Cornish Main Line</a>. </p><p>The Eden Project was used as a filming location for the 2002 <a href="/facts/James_Bond/FQQ7pp1y">James Bond</a> film <i><a href="/facts/Die_Another_Day/J4cJHPbK">Die Another Day</a></i>. On 2 July 2005 The Eden Project hosted the <a href="/facts/Live_8_concert%2c_Eden_Project/X1yT6Rok">"Africa Calling" concert</a> of the <a href="/facts/Live_8/s08q972S">Live 8</a> concert series. It has also provided some plants for the <a href="/facts/British_Museum/mq5LadWV">British Museum</a>'s Africa garden. </p><p>In 2005, the Project launched "A Time of Gifts" for the winter months, November to February. This features an ice rink covering the lake, with a small café-bar attached, as well as a Christmas market. Cornish choirs regularly perform in the biomes. </p><p>In 2007, the Eden Project campaigned unsuccessfully for £50 million in <a href="/facts/Big_Lottery_Fund/NlxGEFSw">Big Lottery Fund</a> money for a proposed <a href="/facts/Desert/Mknp4bXq">desert</a> biome.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:10" href="#fn:10"><sup>10</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:11" href="#fn:11"><sup>11</sup></a> It received just 12.07% of the votes, the lowest for the four projects being considered.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:12" href="#fn:12"><sup>12</sup></a> As part of the campaign, the Eden Project invited people all over Cornwall to try to break the <a href="/facts/World_record/mHavepH0">world record</a> for the biggest ever <a href="/facts/Pub_quiz/26NELzn6">pub quiz</a> as part of its campaign to bring £50 million of <a href="/facts/Lottery/mYwYk5ec">lottery</a> funds to Cornwall.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:13" href="#fn:13"><sup>13</sup></a> </p><p>In December 2009, much of the project, including both greenhouses, became available to navigate through <a href="/facts/Google_Street_View/Ruqzal5A">Google Street View</a>. </p><p>The Eden Trust revealed a trading loss of £1.3 million for 2012–13, on a turnover of £25.4 million. The Eden Project had posted a surplus of £136,000 for the previous year. In 2014 Eden accounts showed a surplus of £2 million.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:14" href="#fn:14"><sup>14</sup></a> </p><p>The <a href="/facts/World_Pasty_Championships/HNjdt4tp">World Pasty Championships</a>, an international competition to find the best <a href="/facts/Cornish_pasties/h84zSRcn">Cornish pasties</a> and other pasty-type savoury snacks, have been held at the Eden Project since 2012.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:15" href="#fn:15"><sup>15</sup></a> </p><p>The Eden Project is said to have contributed over £1 billion to the Cornish economy.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:16" href="#fn:16"><sup>16</sup></a> In 2016, Eden became home to Europe's second-largest <a href="/facts/Redwood/yKCmSFbw">redwood</a> forest (after the Giants Grove at Birr Castle, <a href="/facts/Birr_Castle/hUPJcyQ5">Birr Castle</a>, Ireland) when forty saplings of coast redwoods, <i><a href="/facts/Sequoia_sempervirens/ozsuDuve">Sequoia sempervirens</a></i>, which could live for 4,000 years and reach 115 metres in height, were planted there.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:17" href="#fn:17"><sup>17</sup></a> </p><p>The Eden Project received 1,010,095 visitors in 2019.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:18" href="#fn:18"><sup>18</sup></a> </p><p>In December 2020 the project was closed after heavy rain caused several <a href="/facts/Landslip/sXSzA31e">landslips</a> at the site. Managers at the site are assessing the damage and will announce when the project will reopen on the company's website.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:19" href="#fn:19"><sup>19</sup></a> Reopening became irrelevant as Covid lockdown measures in the UK indefinitely closed the venue from early 2021, though it had reopened by May 2021 after remedial works had taken place. The site was used for an event during the <a href="/facts/2021_G7_Summit/HyDY8eR2">2021 G7 Summit</a>, hosted by the United Kingdom.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:20" href="#fn:20"><sup>20</sup></a> </p> <h2 id="design-and-construction">Design and construction</h2> <p>The project was conceived by <a href="/facts/Tim_Smit/esoolM5Q">Tim Smit</a> and <a href="/facts/Jonathan_Ball_(architect)/62KUcy4Y">Jonathan Ball</a>, and designed by <a href="/facts/Grimshaw_Architects/qAKgQrEl">Grimshaw Architects</a> and structural engineering firm <a href="/facts/Anthony_Hunt_Associates/IvwvkNWs">Anthony Hunt Associates</a> (now part of <a href="/facts/Sinclair_Knight_Merz/jTb51K2w">Sinclair Knight Merz</a>). <a href="/facts/Davis_Langdon/D51gxsHS">Davis Langdon</a> carried out the project management, <a href="/facts/Sir_Robert_McAlpine/adwJzQrj">Sir Robert McAlpine</a> and <a href="/facts/Alfred_McAlpine/44BwoyNz">Alfred McAlpine</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:21" href="#fn:21"><sup>21</sup></a> did the construction, <a href="/facts/Mero-Schmidlin/hPzG1nMN">MERO</a> jointly designed and built the biome steel structures, the <a href="/facts/ETFE/CpH0K3oo">ETFE</a> pillows that build the façade were realized by <a href="/facts/Vector_Foiltec/4A9EWfWH">Vector Foiltec</a>, and <a href="/facts/Arup_Group_Limited/S0LTpmIN">Arup</a> was the services engineer, economic consultant, environmental engineer and transportation engineer. Land Use Consultants led the masterplan and landscape design. The project took 2½ years to construct and opened to the public on 17 March 2001. </p> <h2 id="site">Site</h2> <h3>Layout</h3> <p>Once into the attraction, there is a meandering path with views of the two biomes, planted landscapes, including vegetable gardens, and sculptures that include a giant <a href="/facts/Bee/HglXpXty">bee</a> and previously The <a href="/facts/WEEE/dG0A5yQH">WEEE</a> Man (removed in 2016), a towering figure made from old electrical appliances and was meant to represent the average electrical waste used by one person in a lifetime. </p> <h3>Biomes</h3> <p>At the bottom of the pit are two covered <a href="/facts/Biome/cl4X36GB">biomes</a>: </p><p>The Rainforest Biome, covers 1.56 ha (3.9 acres) and measures 55 m (180 ft) high, 100 m (328 ft) wide, and 200 m (656 ft) long. It is used for tropical plants, such as fruiting <a href="/facts/Banana/D6r2qPPq">banana</a> plants, <a href="/facts/Coffee/Q4Ko2C7I">coffee</a>, rubber, and giant <a href="/facts/Bamboo/wGPJ2cEA">bamboo</a>, and is kept at a tropical temperature and moisture level. </p> <p>The <a href="/facts/Mediterranean_climate/gGsJAKE5">Mediterranean</a> Biome covers 0.654 ha (1.6 acres) and measures 35 m (115 ft) high, 65 m (213 ft) wide, and 135 m (443 ft) long. It houses familiar warm <a href="/facts/Temperate/6WPypCzC">temperate</a> and <a href="/facts/Arid/BHJj0qJ3">arid</a> plants such as <a href="/facts/Olive/tWecyIbg">olives</a> and grape <a href="/facts/Vine/3nVRIAws">vines</a> and various sculptures. </p><p>The Outdoor Gardens represent the temperate regions of the world with plants such as <a href="/facts/Tea/oDQhcyrc">tea</a>, <a href="/facts/Lavender/WGnWX9Rh">lavender</a>, <a href="/facts/Hops/mBRf6xGx">hops</a>, <a href="/facts/Hemp/quexqR9M">hemp</a>, and <a href="/facts/Sunflower/KIv0oR5w">sunflowers</a>, as well as local plant species. </p><p>The covered biomes are constructed from a tubular steel (hex-tri-hex) with mostly hexagonal external cladding panels made from the thermoplastic <a href="/facts/ETFE/CpH0K3oo">ETFE</a>. Glass was avoided due to its weight and potential dangers. The cladding panels themselves are created from several layers of thin <a href="/facts/Ultraviolet/kncBUqn5">UV</a>-transparent ETFE <a href="/facts/Tensile_structure/MUlT2xgs">film</a>, which are sealed around their <a href="/facts/Perimeter/yQv1AajA">perimeter</a> and inflated to create a large cushion. The resulting cushion acts as a thermal blanket to the structure. The ETFE material is resistant to most stains, which simply wash off in the rain. If required, cleaning can be performed by <a href="/facts/Abseil/3U4yL1ww">abseilers</a>. Although the ETFE is susceptible to punctures, these can be easily fixed with ETFE tape. The structure is completely self-supporting, with no internal supports, and takes the form of a <a href="/facts/Geodesic_dome/XmHEPKmK">geodesic</a> structure. The panels vary in size up to 9 m (29.5 ft) across, with the largest at the top of the structure. </p><p>The ETFE technology was supplied and installed by the firm <a href="/facts/Vector_Foiltec/4A9EWfWH">Vector Foiltec</a>, which is also responsible for ongoing maintenance of the cladding. The steel spaceframe and cladding package (with Vector Foiltec as ETFE subcontractor) was designed, supplied and installed by MERO (UK) PLC, who also jointly developed the overall scheme geometry with the architect, Nicholas Grimshaw & Partners. </p><p>The entire build project was managed by McAlpine Joint Venture. </p> <h3>The Core</h3> <p>The Core is the latest addition to the site and opened in September 2005. It provides the Eden Project with an education facility, incorporating classrooms and exhibition spaces designed to help communicate Eden's central message about the relationship between people and plants. Accordingly, the building has taken its inspiration from plants, most noticeable in the form of the soaring timber roof, which gives the building its distinctive shape. </p><p>Grimshaw developed the geometry of the copper-clad roof in collaboration with a sculptor, Peter Randall-Page, and Mike Purvis of structural engineers <a href="/facts/Sinclair_Knight_Merz/jTb51K2w">SKM Anthony Hunts</a>. It is derived from <a href="/facts/Phyllotaxis/8xGtgllo">phyllotaxis</a>, which is the mathematical basis for nearly all plant growth; the "opposing spirals" found in many plants such as the seeds in a sunflower's head, <a href="/facts/Pine_cone/rqHh3fVu">pine cones</a>, and <a href="/facts/Pineapple/LIAWHdQm">pineapples</a>. The copper was obtained from traceable sources, and the Eden Project is working with <a href="/facts/Rio_Tinto_(corporation)/CCYJBbUL">Rio Tinto</a> to explore the possibility of encouraging further traceable supply routes for metals, which would enable users to avoid metals mined unethically. The services and <a href="/facts/Acoustics/2GpQUymy">acoustic</a>, mechanical, and electrical engineering design was carried out by <a href="/facts/Buro_Happold/3hma5V6f">Buro Happold</a>. </p> <h4>Art at The Core</h4> <p>The Core is also home to art exhibitions throughout the year. A permanent installation entitled <i>Seed</i>, by <a href="/facts/Peter_Randall-Page/RAuPQ7Km">Peter Randall-Page</a>, occupies the anteroom. <i>Seed</i> is a large, 70 tonne egg-shaped installation, carved from a single block of <a href="/facts/Granite/G2evuVKo">granite</a> from <a href="/facts/De_Lank_Quarries/3mQ2HPnW">De Lank Quarry</a> on <a href="/facts/Bodmin_Moor/qFeXcJMl">Bodmin Moor</a>, standing some 13 feet (4.0 m) tall and displaying a complex pattern of protrusions that are based upon the <a href="/facts/Fibonacci_number/mqxpAUQD">geometric and mathematical principles that underlie plant growth</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:22" href="#fn:22"><sup>22</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:23" href="#fn:23"><sup>23</sup></a> </p> <h2 id="environmental-aspects">Environmental aspects</h2> <p>The biomes provide diverse growing conditions, and many plants are on display. </p><p>The Eden Project includes <a href="/facts/Environmental_education/nDF13u9T">environmental education</a> focusing on the interdependence of plants and people; plants are labelled with their medicinal uses. The massive amounts of water required to create the humid conditions of the Tropical Biome, and to serve the toilet facilities, are all sanitised rain water that would otherwise collect at the bottom of the quarry. The only <a href="/facts/Public_utility/BzslJKc3">mains</a> water used is for hand washing and for cooking. The complex also uses Green Tariff Electricity – some of the energy comes from one of the many <a href="/facts/Wind_turbine/lUfWqfLg">wind turbines</a> in Cornwall, which were among the first in Europe. </p><p>In December 2010 the Eden Project received permission to build a <a href="/facts/Geothermal_electricity/1zdrqHdU">geothermal electricity</a> plant which will generate approx 4MWe, enough to supply Eden and about 5000 households.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:24" href="#fn:24"><sup>24</sup></a> The project will involve <a href="/facts/Geothermal_heating/yUR3Aj2c">geothermal heating</a> as well as geothermal electricity. <a href="/facts/Cornwall_Council/GTYJUw8b">Cornwall Council</a> and the <a href="/facts/European_Union/6GYcR8qM">European Union</a> came up with the greater part of £16.8m required to start the project. First a well will be sunk nearly 3 miles (4.5 km) into the granite crust underneath Eden. </p><p>Eden co-founder, Sir <a href="/facts/Tim_Smit/esoolM5Q">Tim Smit</a> said, "Since we began, Eden has had a dream that the world should be powered by renewable energy. The sun can provide massive solar power and the wind has been harnessed by humankind for thousands of years, but because both are intermittent and battery technology cannot yet store all we need there is a gap. We believe the answer lies beneath our feet in the heat underground that can be accessed by drilling technology that pumps water towards the centre of the Earth and brings it back up superheated to provide us with heat and electricity".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:25" href="#fn:25"><sup>25</sup></a> </p><p>Drilling began in May 2021,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:26" href="#fn:26"><sup>26</sup></a> and heating of the biomes began in 2023, using 85°C.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:27" href="#fn:27"><sup>27</sup></a> </p> <h2 id="other-projects">Other projects</h2> <h3>Eden Project Morecambe</h3> <p>In 2018, the Eden Project revealed its design for a new version of the project, located on the seafront in <a href="/facts/Morecambe/XcyK1fuC">Morecambe</a>, <a href="/facts/Lancashire/XmzHoIsl">Lancashire</a>. There will be biomes shaped like <a href="/facts/Mussel/SNdrkjfl">mussels</a> and a focus on the marine environment.
