Britain could be powered by Icelandic volcanoes
Britain could become powered by Icelandic volcanoes as the government looks abroad for a solution to its green energy problem. The energy minister will visitIceland soon to discuss a possible deal to harvest low-carbon energy from the natural geothermal energy of Iceland's volcanoes. This would involve laying high-voltage cable between Britain and Iceland. The scheme could form part of a wider European renewable energy 'supergrid' aimed at combining the wind and wave power of northern Europe with solar energy from the south of the continent and northern Africa.
