What is the energy potential of the Faroe Islands?

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.

Who produces electricity in the Faroe Islands?

SEV, the municipality-owned company, produces approximately 90% of the electricity in the Faroe Islands. Wind power was introduced in 1993, initially producing as little as 423 MWh, but rising to 90 GWh by 2022.

Does the Faroe Islands have a solar park?

The Faroe Islands have a solar park with a 250 kW capacity in Sumba. It is expected to produce 160 MWh/year (i.e. a capacity factor of 7.3% and equivalent to 35 tons of oil), mainly in the summer when rain and wind are low.

Can Faroe Island achieve 100% energy independence?

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.
