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.

“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.
Nielsen is Head of R&D at Elfelagið SEV, the publicly-owned, primary power-producer on the islands, and he has a clear vision: “Our future energy supply in the Faroes is green. We have set a goal of becoming 100% green by 2030 in terms of on-shore electricity.”
At the same time, the plant is the first major photovoltaic system in the Faroe Islands, and although we are only in mid-November and solar irradiation in 2021 is more than 10% below normal levels, with 161,200 kWh it has already produced more than the estimated nominal production.
“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.
