Iceland and geothermal energy

Iceland has harnessed the potential of geothermal energy, heating 90% of its houses and producing 30% of its electricity with geothermal. Geothermal energy is very important in Iceland that relies 100% on renewables for both electricity and house heating. The cascading use of geothermal was also pioneered in Iceland and has created new industries in Iceland through the circular economy mindset of making the most of each resource. Icelandic expertise in geothermal is also a valuable export product.

Maybe this partly explains why Iceland has such natural beauty.

How do I get a job there at one of those plants?

Most of the Western States in the United States could be running off geothermal energy. But no we have to have wind and solar.

This was wonderful documentary, l like it keep up.
Besaid that thankyou for posting my pictures in this great documentary of Icelandic.

Containment of energy is certainly the greatest sustainable development since we invented fire, or at least the containment of its power. Here’s hoping we don’t encourage ruin into living via damaging natural networks.

Notes. 1.00 we stopped doing coal. We gotta be careful cuz look at shell groningen and then realize we shouldnt fuck with underground nature too much.

It's perpetual energy, not "renewable." Once used, you don't reconstruct the hot lava you just used. Rather, it just never ends; it's forever, or perpetual. It's there until the Earth ends, which is when it doesn't matter anyway.

Should or can huge amount of energy-dens industries be moved to where the energy is?

How much geothermal energy could be built up in Iceland?
easy to get there by boat also. :D

Will you be europes new germany? :D

[meindepp]

Why don’t you add production of H2 production and a pipeline to Central Europe?

[iliketheodds]

Doesn’t natural co2 emissions only get hastened by harnessing geothermal energy? If it does, it isn’t “green” at all.

The goal should not be renewable. The goal should be clean reliable power while minimizing environmental impact. Calling something Renewable tells us absolutely nothing useful about energy sources, RE is nothing but a misleading marketing term like all natural or chemical free. Let's retire the useless term Renewable.
