We are currently carrying out research and other preparatory work relating to new geothermal power plants in the geothermal areas at Theistareykir and Gjástykki in Thingeyjarsýsla, and at Krafla and Bjarnarflag, where we have our current geothermal installations. A regional plan pertaining to this initiative was approved in January 2008.

The installed capacity of the Kárahnjúkar Hydropower Plant (HPP) is 690 MW, and its power-generating capacity is 4,600 GWh/year. This single installation harnesses the potential of the Rivers Jökulsá á Dal and Jökulsá í Fljótsdal and tributaries in the Hraun area to the east.

Preparatory work on new hydroelectric installations on the River Thjórsá below the Búrfell hydropower station has been in progress for some years. Three new hydropower stations are planned to harness the head down to sea level.

Burdarháls Power Plant will have an installed capacity of around 90 MW and a generating capacity of about 630 GWh/year.

Before Landsvirkjun Power took over all of Landsvirkjun's engineering and construction projects, Landsvirkjun had many completed projects on file. Here you will find some examples of those projects, along with some descriptions and general information about them.
