Technical FAQs 4

What does the Icelandic Environment & Energy Agency do?

Icelandic Environment and Energy Agency is responsible for measuring and reporting Iceland‘s emissions of greenhouse gases and carbon uptake by afforestation and other means. Here you can see numbers and trends. More What is Climate Change?

What is Iceland's emissions profile?

Iceland‘s emissions profile is in many ways unusual. Almost all heating and electricity generation is provided for by renewables – hydro and geothermal energy. Iceland has great potential for carbon uptake from the atmosphere by afforestation and revegetation, and to curb emissions from soils by reclaiming drained wetlands.

Does Iceland cut emissions by 55% by 2030?

Iceland Is committed to cut emissions by 55% by 2030, as part of a common effort by 29 European countries. Iceland has an agreement on this with the EU and Norway, and has comparable climate regulation, including participating in emissions trading (EU-ETS). More

How much power does a solar air conditioner use?

It depends on the solar-powered air conditioner you choose and how much you use it. Most mini splits use 500-700 watts per hour per evaporator zone. Most residential solar panels make 250-400 watts per hour. That means most solar air conditioners require at least two solar panels. Central air conditioning capacity is measured based on tonnage.
