This town found clean energy deep inside old coal mines

Cumberland, British Columbia, grew out of coal mining. For decades, the industry defined daily life, employing thousands of workers and sending millions of tonnes of coal around the world. When mining operations shut down after roughly 80 years, they left behind more than empty tunnels. The closures also created a lasting economic gap in the community.
