Sustainable Energy Resources and Economics in Iceland and by Helga Kristjánsdóttir

By Helga Kristjánsdóttir

This publication offers attention-grabbing examples of the methods renewable and sustainable strength can help financial development, so as to be illuminating for tutorial researchers and scholars, in addition to these attracted to eco-friendly funding possibilities. The specific glacial, volcanic and oceanic environments of Iceland and Greenland provide considerable renewable strength assets within the kind of hydropower and geothermal strength. As one of many few international locations on the planet with a hundred% renewable electrical energy construction, Iceland is a compelling case learn of a sustainable strength pushed economic system. attention of Greenland offers a fascinating distinction, as its huge, immense capability for hydropower scale-up has in simple terms been minimally harnessed. The variable and stuck rate components governing additional growth and export of the areas’ sustainable strength through sub-sea cable are detailed.
