Much of electricity in Iceland is generated by hydroelectric power stations. Írafossstöð was built in 1953 and is one of Iceland's oldest hydroelectric plants still operating, located just south of Þingvallavatn. The electricity sector in Iceland is 99.98% reliant on renewable energy: hydro power, geothermal energy and wind energy.
In this research, the Icelandic energy system is analyzed as a case study. A case study approach allows for an in-depth analysis of a “contemporary phenomenon” within a “real-life context” ( Yin, 2009). In this study, the phenomenon studied is SED within the Icelandic energy system.
Furthermore, some of the indicators in both the EISDs and SDG7 were deemed irrelevant for Iceland. These indicators were not topics of discussions for stakeholders and, thus, not issues for SED in the country. An example of this would be indicators measuring accessibility to modern energy services or clean cooking fuels.
This indicator measures the diversity of energy consumers and, as such, the economic vulnerability of the system. Energy sales are a pillar of the Icelandic economy. This indicator measures whether the energy system is remaining profitable. Economic tools applied by the government.
The electricity sector in Iceland is 99.98% reliant on renewable energy: hydro power, geothermal energy and wind energy. Iceland's consumption of electricity per capita was seven times higher than EU 15 average in 2008. The majority of the electricity is sold to industrial users, mainly aluminium smelters and producers of ferroalloy.
