Le risque d’effondrement du sol dans les fissures de la ville reste élevé », prévient toutefois l’office météorologique islandais (IMO)
L’éruption volcanique qui a touché dimanche la ville portuaire de Grindavik, dans le sud-ouest de l’Islande, est terminée, a annoncé vendredi l’office météorologique islandais (IMO).

« Il est très probable que le magma ne s’écoule plus dans le dyke (intrusion de magma dans la croûte terrestre, ndlr) et que l’éruption est terminée », a écrit l’IMO un bulletin.

Enercon secures 120MW wind farm contract in Iceland
The wind farm will be situated in Búrfell, 130km from the capital, Reykjavik.

November 29, 2024

Enercon has secured a contract to deliver and construct 28 E-138 EP3 turbines for Iceland’s first large-scale wind farm, with a total capacity of 120MW.

State-owned energy supplier Landsvirkjun will partner Enercon for the project.

Covering 17km², the wind farm will be situated in Búrfell in the south of the country, 130km from the capital, Reykjavik.

The E-138 EP3 turbines will have a hub height of 81m, a rotor diameter of 138m and nominal power of 4.26MW.

The project continues a long-standing collaboration between Enercon and Landsvirkjun, which dates back to the construction of Iceland’s first wind turbines in 2012.

Landsvirkjun chief executive Hörður Arnarson stated: “We are very pleased to be able to build on this today. For us, wind energy is a sensible addition to geothermal energy and hydropower.

“We will now build the first large wind farm in Iceland, and it is essential for us to have the most experienced and reliable partner in that project.”

Construction of the new wind farm is scheduled to commence in late 2024, with site road development and foundation works.

The delivery of the first components to the Búrfell site is planned for May 2026, and construction work will begin in the second quarter of the same year.

Enercon central and northern Europe regional head Benjamin Seifert stated: “Since our first joint project, Iceland has been a market with considerable potential for us, which we have never lost sight of, and the enthusiasm in our entire team is great that we can realise this project with Landsvirkjun.

“This also demonstrates that the Nordic countries continue to play an important role in our further market orientation.”

E-M supply sought for 65 MW expansion of Sigalda station in Iceland

Hydropower & Dams March 26, 2025

Landsvirkjun, Iceland’s national power company, has launched a negotiated procurement procedure with prior publication of a call for competition for the supply of electro-mechanical equipment for the 65 MW expansion of the 150 MW Sigalda hydropower station. Bids are sought by 28 April.


The scope of contract includes a generating unit of one 65 MW Francis turbine and generator, with steel spiral case and a steel draft tube liner and basic unit auxiliaries and control, as well as installation works in the existing three unit Sigalda powerhouse, according to a procurement notice published on the EU’s public procurement platform on 18 March. The contracted work is expected to start in November and to be completed by the end of 2027, with the new unit scheduled to begin operation in 2028.

The existing 150 MW hydropower station has been in operation since 1978 and produces around 920 GWh annually. Its infrastructure includes the Sigalda dam, the 14 km² Krókslón reservoir, and a 550 m-long tailrace canal linking it to the Hrauneyjafoss hydropower station. Denmark-based engineering firm COWI was awarded a contract for the design of the 150 MW Sigalda expansion project in March.
