The future of energy production in Greenland

A major challenge in Greenland is the lack of a coherent energy transmission system, which means that the Greenland energy supply system is based on individual island operation systems, with a need for backup capacity in every community. This set-up presents challenges when relying upon unpredictable sources of energy such as solar and wind.

Renewable energy across the Arctic

The report will identify the barriers for the transition to renewable energy in Greenland and how to overcome them. Greenland has been partly self-supplying with energy since 1993 by help of hydropower plants and waste incineration. Greenland adopted its Energy Supply Regulation No.14 from November 6 in 1997 (Grønlands Hjemmestyre, 1997), and

Confronting Local and Global Tipping Narratives: Green Energy

Hence, Greenland and its interactions with other international energy actors can be understood as a complex socio-energy system operating at multiple scales of action with potentially diverting tipping points that could unfold in a near future towards both positive and/or negative trajectories, not only locally but worldwide.

Confronting Local and Global Tipping Narratives: Green Energy

In this chapter, by focusing on the case of Greenland, we examine a confrontation of narratives that is mostly materialized at local level when confronting different notions of resource property and rights that usually overlooked in global-local discourses about green energy futures.

6 FAQs about [Greenland local energy system]

Is Greenland a potential E-Fuels hub?

Greenland's transition from a fossil fuels-based system to a 100% renewable energy system between 2019 and 2050 and its position as a potential e-fuels and e-chemicals production hub for Europe, Japan, and South Korea, has been investigated in this study using the EnergyPLAN model.

What is Greenland's primary source of energy?

Historically, Greenland’s primary source of energy has been imported fossil fuels. However, times change and 55–60% of Greenland’s energy in recent decades came from renewable resources.

Does Greenland have a place-based approach to energy production?

The lack of electricity transmission between urban settlements in Greenland necessitates a place-based approach to energy production. In keeping with this, this case from Greenland is intentionally laid out differently to the others in the Handbook.

Is solar feasible in Greenland?

In this work we investigate potential solar feasibility in Greenland using the village of Qaanaaq, Greenland as a case study to demonstrate several optimized energy scenarios. 1.1. Alternative energy in the arctic Both wind turbines and solar photovoltaic (PV) are mature technologies.

What is the primary energy mix of Greenland?

As presented in Fig. 2, the primary energy mix of Greenland changes notably between 2019 and 2050. In the reference scenario, oil constitutes around 80% of the primary energy consumption, with the rest being supplied mainly by hydropower.

What percentage of Greenland's energy comes from renewable resources?
