It might be about general knowledge of how colliders work, the sentence structure does it no favours, but half way through I realised it had to be intentional/beneficial due to knowing the only possible way a collider generates heat as a byproduct.
Where as someone that doesn't know much about colliders might read that sentence and assume it's like radiative heat or something.
It was just comical to imagine the collider would heat up the residents directly like an enormous microwave oven. In the usual wording, households are warmed, and indirectly the residents.
All heat transfer is radiative if you zoom in enough.
