MAN Energy Completes Hybrid Power Plant in Faroe Islands

MAN Energy Solutions has completed the expansion of the ''Sund'' power plant near the Faroese capital Tórshavn and successfully handed the plant over to local energy supplier, Elfelagið SEV.

Faroe Islands

The Faroe Islands power system is small and vulnerable The islands has a small and vulnerable power system with a high number of blackouts compared to continental Europe (1-3 total blackouts yearly). They only have a few power plants, no interconnectors to other countries and harsh weather conditions with frequent storms. The Faroe Island

Making the Faroe Islands the World''s Greenest Group of Islands

Faroese and Danish working group has calculated the ways to achieve these goals. The group has also made suggestions as to how the islands can avoid imports of fossil fuels for energy consumption as early as 2030 by focusing on wind power, wind turbines, solar power stations, tide plants, batteries, and pump systems.

What is the Faroe Islands'' plan for becoming carbon neutral?

One of the Nordic islands playing a significant role in advancing green energy initiatives for places that are isolated or distant is the Faroe Islands. The Faroe Islands, like all other countries in this part of the world, are undergoing a green transition in energy production and energy use.

Faroe Islands: Towards 100% R.E.S. penetration

Particularly in Faroe Islands, energy autonomy will be mainly based on wind parks, given the remarkably high wind potential for nine months annually. Photovoltaic stations will be also examined as supplementary RES power plants, substantially during summer, when the available wind potential drops.

Shining a light on a smart island

The Faroe Islands are aiming for complete sustainable energy supply by creating a smart and innovative micro-grid. Far from continental Europe and surrounded by a vast sea, the Faroe Islands lie in the middle of the North Atlantic between Iceland and Norway.

Will the Faroe Islands use more green energy in 2025?

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.

Are there renewables in the Faroe Islands?

“In the Faroe Islands, we are blessed with renewables: we have wind, hydro and some sun in the summer; we also have tidal and wave power where we can see great potential,” says Nielsen. Since announcing its green vision in 2014, SEV has already done a lot to increase the share of renewables in its energy mix.

How can Faroese & Denmark avoid imports of fossil fuels?

Faroese and Danish working group has calculated the ways to achieve these goals. The group has also made suggestions as to how the islands can avoid imports of fossil fuels for energy consumption as early as 2030 by focusing on wind power, wind turbines, solar power stations, tide plants, batteries, and pump systems.

Can the Faroe Islands expand its wind turbine capacity?

A possible combination could be to stake on expanding the wind turbine capacity from 18.6 MW to 72 MW in 2030 and supplement with two production methods that are new to the Faroe Islands: gradual expansion of solar parks with a total capacity of 30 MW and a tide plant with a capacity of up to 60 MW.
