Technical FAQs 3

Does Iceland have a wind farm?

(Landsvirkjun) Landsvirkjun, Iceland’s national power company, has announced an agreement with German wind turbine manufacturer Enercon to procure, install and operate 28 wind turbines for the Búrfellslundur wind farm near Vaðalda in southern Iceland.

When will Iceland's first wind farm be built?

This development follows the Icelandic government’s recent approval of the country’s first wind farm, marking a significant advancement in Iceland’s renewable energy sector. The first 14 turbines are slated for construction in early 2026, with commissioning expected later that year.

Why should Iceland invest in wind energy?

With nearly all of Iceland’s energy currently derived from these two renewable resources, the addition of wind energy represents a significant step toward broadening the country’s energy mix. This diversification is seen as essential for enhancing energy security and meeting future demand.
