Pity that waste heat couldn’t be used to offset household or business heating and thereby reduce energy usage elsewhere.

That's entirely possible we do that here. Unfortunately the infrastructure is very expensive if your city doesn't already have district heating and if it does like most cities do here, I'm guessing it's still pretty damn expensive to implement.

It's great though.
