Technical FAQs 4

Can wind power be used in Iceland?

The use of wind power for electricity generation in Iceland has hitherto been limited to small wind turbines for off-grid use, and until recently there were no large wind turbines in operation in Iceland. Despite Iceland having a favourable climate for wind power , detailed research into the wind power potential in Iceland is quite recent.

Is wind energy production viable in Iceland?

To be able to determine to what extent wind energy production in Iceland is viable, the annual averages of wind power density and available power need to be compared with the wind resources of other countries, as well as with the capacity of domestic hydro and geothermal power plants.

What is the main source of energy in Iceland?

1. Introduction In Iceland, more than 80% of the primary energy supply derives from geothermal and hydropower. Almost all electricity produced in Iceland derives from renewable sources, with 73% from hydropower plants, and 27% from geothermal plants .

Can hydropower be used in Iceland?

One aspect of hydropower in Iceland is that the streamflow in rivers tends to exhibit a large annual variation, with larger flow during summer than in winter. Since the annual cycle of wind in Iceland has the opposite phase, with stronger winds in winter than in summer, wind power can potentially be used effectively in combination with hydropower.
