Energy in the Faroe Islands is produced primarily from imported fossil fuels, with further contributions from hydro and wind power. Oil products are the main energy source, mainly consumed by fishing vessels and sea transport. Electricity is produced by , and , mainly by , which is owned by all the municipalities of the Faroe Islands. The are not connected by power lines with continental Europe, and thus the archipelago cann. [pdf]
The achievement of the 100% energy independence in the remote insular systems of the Faroe Islands is proved to be a real challenge. The topos of Faroe Island is truly blessed with abundant wind and hydrodynamic potential and excellent sites for PHS installations, integrated in a breath-taking, majestic landscape.
In the Faroe Islands, energy is produced primarily from hydro and wind power, with oil products being the main energy source. Mostly consumed by fishing vessels and sea transport.
Faroe Islands exhibit high wind and hydro potential. Electricity, heating and onshore transportation needs are considered in this work. RES annual penetration higher than 90% can be achieved. Wind parks, p/vs and pumped storage systems are the most feasible technologies. RES penetration above 95% requires smart grid integration concepts.
“The energy system in the Faroe Islands is an impressive example of how all available energy resources can be integrated into a smart and innovative microgrid,” says Vehkakoski.
Even more conservative scenarios predict that the Faroe Islands’ current electricity consumption of approximately 350,000 MWh per year will increase to approximately 450,000 MWh in 2025. “The current discussion recommends using more green energy and especially the potential for wind energy is quite high,” says one of the islanders.
Fishing is, and has been for many decades, the main industry in the Faroe Islands with its products, including farmed salmon, representing more than 95% of total exports, and around 20% of Faroese GDP. “Producing fish meal and oil requires quite a lot of energy.

Greenland has 70 decentralized, stand-alone energy systems with their own stability requirements with a capacity from ca. 30 kW to 45 MW that can provide electricity to 1-15.000 residents. Heating is generated by waste incineration, fossil heating plants or hydropower in the urban communities (Mortensen 2016).
Greenland has been partly self-supplying with energy since 1993 by help of hydropower plants and waste incineration. Greenland adopted its Energy Supply Regulation No.14 from November 6 in 1997 (Grønlands Hjemmestyre, 1997), and this is still in force and forms the basis for promotion of renewable energy sources in Greenland (Mortensen 2016).
In this work we investigate potential solar feasibility in Greenland using the village of Qaanaaq, Greenland as a case study to demonstrate several optimized energy scenarios. 1.1. Alternative energy in the arctic Both wind turbines and solar photovoltaic (PV) are mature technologies.
No comprehensive study on Greenland has been found, as existing studies focus on small individual communities. Such studies provide a tailored perspective on decentralised energy systems, considering local climate conditions, energy demand, and quality of local renewable resources.
Solar power is a promising energy source that already has been well implemented and surely is scalable as indicated in table 4. The level of radiation varies throughout the year, but at the bottom line there is as much radiation in Greenland as other places on the world where solar power is eagerly implemented (Villumsen 2016).
With an agreement on new hydroelectric plants in Qasigiannguit and Aasiaat and the expansion of the existing one in Nuuk, green energy should spread across the Greenlandic geographical map. The political course is set in Greenland, with less importing of oil from abroad and a much larger share of green energy in Greenland.
