Climate and Energy Systems - CES | Icelandic Meteorological office

Climate and Energy Systems, 2007-2010 - 21.12.2009

The goal of the Climate and Energy Systems project is to look at climate impacts closer in time and assess the development of the Nordic electricity system for the next 20-30 years. The project started in 2007 and will finish in 2010. It will address how the conditions for production of renewable energy in the Nordic area might change due to global warming. It will focus on the potential production and the future safety of the production systems as well as uncertainties.
