I got very surprised when i saw that this video only has 9000 views. It definitely deserves more. Good job (:

When talking about Iceland and geothermal, it is always talked about the tectonic belt and what possibility that gives. And that volcanic line gives great possibilities. But Iceland is not only using geothermal energy in those areas. In the last years it has turned to the cold areas east and west of that line and found geothermal energy in those "cold" areas. So now we have and are building district heating using geothermal energy in those areas. Geothermal heating in those areas is economical because otherwise you would need either the hot water over long distance, or use more expensive heat sources. Using the hot water in those areas to produce electricity, is at is non economical, as you would either have to use binary cycle power plants using the hot water, or would to have to drill far deeper to find steam. At this time Iceland have still a lot unused resources to produce cheap energy. Just as a comment, steam or hot water from geothermal energy was not used to heat the first house around 1900, but more than 1000 years ago.

Obviously this is a nation that could use EVs for transportation and not have range issues. Unlike the USA, Iceland is relatively small and perfectly suited for this. That would be an amazing transition for Iceland and I’m excited to see it occur.

Thanks for sharing ✌🏼🥶🔥 We are going to Iceland in less then 2 weeks. Doing the whole country. Follow along to see all the amazing places and sites.

honestly man, your videos are great i don't understand, how you dont at least have 100k+ subs. maybe try playing around with the yt algorithm?

That's why Iceland is not dependent on importing natural gas like other European countries

Instead of Iceland , It Should be Called Volcanic Steamland 😀

the only drawback is living on a land that is in constant danger.

Way less dangerous than living in the tornado alley USA ☺️

In the 1970 Iceland had access to all the Soviet oil it could consume reliably. So the oil crises did not have any effect in Iceland.

Am I the only one thinking 1907 is a pretty late date to first decide to harness geothermal power?

@one5thofwhiskey738 10 ай бұрын

Perfect location. . and politicians that don't inhibit development with red tape, kickbacks, greed and bullshit. Imagine that.

After the experience last year I came to the conclusion only geothermal power is fool proof we know that solar and wind are intermittance, and even the normallly reliable hydropwer of Norway was affected a draught in the summer

@andrewday3206 10 ай бұрын

Wind and solar are not intermittent if pumped hydro storage is utilized with them. The added bonus is this refills reservoirs above the dam keeping water levels high.

I really don't understand why GT isn't well pursued here. Maybe lack of expertise which could explain why the president has only opened hydro dams this past 10 years.
