Not that long ago Iceland was considered a developing country. Fast forward to today and it is now one of the welathiest nations on a per capita basis. One major driver of that has been their innovation around the natural resources and energy they have right under their feet; geothermal. Landsvirkjun has been developing and innovating around geothermal and the many use cases for the past 60 years.
