Husavik Energy – Multiple use of geothermal energy. Thermie project no
Húsavík town is located on the coast of Skjálfandaflói in the northern part of Iceland. Twenty 20 km south of Húsavík is the Hveravellir geothermal area. Geothermal fluid from three boreholes that were drilled there in 1974 – 1998 ranges in temperature from 115 ° to 130°C. Close by are several natur...
