The Federation of Tampere Evangelical Lutheran Parishes wants to pump excess heat from its Valtiala furnace into the local central heating system to heat homes in the town as well as in nearby Kangasala.

If the parish union and Kangasalan Lämpö reach an agreement, the crematorium's excess heat could be warming homes in the area by next winter.

Ah just like how Egyptians used mummies for kindling. All that's missing is some snake oil salesman peddling tinctures made of these corpses as a cure to measles or something.
