Green by Iceland

The Global Energy Show

Iceland has been harvesting renewable energy for more than a century.

100% of electricity and house-heating needs are met with renewables in Iceland.  Furthermore, icelandic companies have been developing projects where CO2 emissions are captured, turned into stone and stored underground at an industrial scale. Turning green hydrogen and CO2 from geothermal power plants or other sources into liquid methanol for fuel application, greener chemicals, and products, has also advanced as a solution available worldwide.

We are joined by 3 Icelandic companies at booth, no. 1327, exhibition area. Find Icelandic expertise in renewable energy and carbon capture and storage/utilization there and learn more.
