– Increased efficiency - fewer kWh to distribute
costs between
– Increased temperatures – lower demand
– Danish system not dimensioned for electric
heating – increasing use of heat pumps could put
pressure on 0.4 kV
– Political goals for electric cars will put great
pressure on 0.4 kV grid in some areas
– Increased summer demand – better income

September an Mlw3.9 earthquake occurred in the southern part of the caldera and some days later it was
followed by large swarm that lasted 2-3 days and had several Mlw3 earthquakes. A great number of the
detected earthquakes during 2015 and 2016 originated in the northwestern part of Vatnajökull ice cap in
connection with the Bárðarbunga volcano and the eruption in Holuhraun that started late August

wanted to drop you guys a line and
say thank you. I was in Iceland for 16 days in September surfing, and
your web site was so crucial to the trip on knowing when to move and
where to go. Keep up the great work. Thanks again.Preparing a visit to Iceland

A change in hydro-climatological variability may lead to changes in the operation of reservoirs and wind turbines and the energy production potential itself. In particular the variability in hydropower is a great concern in the light of some very

location as we have great accessibility to 100% geothermal energy sources. Due
to the location, we can lower the carbon footprint and with that the national

effect on variations in the gravitational field near Iceland, as clearly shown
in fig 1. This influence from Greenland is believed to be important for future
sea-level rise near Iceland which will most likely be less than half of the
global average sea-level rise. This arises because the gravitational pull on
the ocean waters near Iceland will be reduced in the future due
