6 · The project began in 2012 when researchers and engineers began sequestering carbon into basalt rocks in southwest Iceland. It''s a collaboration between Reykjavik Energy, the University of Iceland, France''s National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) and Columbia University in the US.
Within this pilot, we transport CO 2 for permanent geological storage from Switzerland to Iceland for the first time. The transported CO 2 is from a biogenic source located in Bern, i.e., it was produced by fermenting biomass and separated from biomethane in a biogas upgrading plant. After capture, the CO 2 is then liquefied and transported in
Different energy storage options is considered, focusing on battery storage, underground solar power/energy storage, and hydrogen storage. Map of
About the National Energy Authority (Orkustofnun) The National Energy Authority (NEA, Orkustofnun in Icelandic) operates for the benefit of society and in line with Iceland''s energy policy. Its role is to create a transparent environment for energy matters, promote innovation and informed discussions, and provide expert advice to the

ON Power, the Icelandic geothermal energy provider, supplies clean renewable energy to power the Orca plant. Our partners Carbfix, experts in rapid underground mineralization mix the air-captured CO₂ with water and pump it deep underground, where it is trapped in stone through a natural mineralization process that
Image credit: Climeworks. Icelandic carbon capture company, Climeworks, has officially launched Orca, the world''s largest direct air capture and storage plant that permanently removes CO₂ from the air. Through the development of Orca, Climeworks has been able to intensify the process of CO₂ capture capacity per module.

The carbon storage project CarbFix at the Hellisheidi geothermal power plant in Iceland is about to start next month and will "assess the viability of storing carbon pollution underground by artificially creating seams of limestone. If it is successful, the carbon dioxide
New research coming out of the University of Iceland introduces the novel idea of adding EES technologies such as Lithium-ion batteries across the country''s grid to
Our results, therefore, demonstrate that the safe long-term storage of anthropogenic CO 2 emissions through mineralization can be far faster than previously postulated. CarbFix is a collaborative project between Reykjavik Energy, the University of Iceland, CNRS
Carbfix, a subsidiary of Reykjavik Energy, has been working in Iceland with Switzerland-based Climeworks on direct air capture (DAC) technology. The companies have worked together on a DAC project at the 303-MW Hellisheiði (Hellisheidi) geothermal plant (Figure 2) in Iceland, which POWER visited in mid-June.
