A hydrogen powered iceland
Iceland is looking to become the only country in the world that generates 100% of all its electricity via completely renewable energy weather is be by hydro power, wind power, solar power and there are a few more as well including geothermal energy represented by the Blue Lagoon that we visited. At the moment they supply 89% of all the energy needed and are looking into becoming a hydrogen economy. Iceland is the first country in the world to create an economy generated through industries fueled by renewable energy, and there is still a large amount of untapped hydroelectric energy in Iceland. In 2002 it was estimated that Iceland only generated 17% of the total harness able hydroelectric energy in the country. -Nick Kruger
