Iceland drills three miles into volcanoes to produce clean energy

Record-breaking project could produce 10 times more energy than gas or oil extraction.

Iceland is harnessing volcanic heat to produce clean energy in a pioneering new geothermal technology project.

Energy company HS Orka has drilled down three miles into the earth near the country’s famous Blue Lagoon spa in the Reykjanes region.

If successful, the experimental project could produce up to 10 times more energy than a conventional gas or oil well, by generating electricity from the heat stored in volcanic areas.
