HS Energy employees at a price and monitor

« We have naturally been watching every day what is going on and are very well connected to the Civil Defense and the Meteorological Office. We are regularly included in their meetings, ”says Tómas Már Sigurðsson, CEO of HS Orka.

There is now a great deal of earthquake at Reykjanestá, southwest of Reykjanes peninsula, where you will find the Reykjanes power plant which is owned by the company.

Have been prepared for a long

Tomas says HS Orka has a warning system and always on price.

« And when it is aiming for a soda, we just empty the area. But it has been at that stage for a while now that it can erup at any time, so we have just been prepared. « 

Increased goats not measured

Borehole measurements in the company's power plant in Svartsengi have previously given a strong indication that the eruption is coming, but then an increased amount of gases in the hole measured.

« Nothing has been measured now so I know. No increase. But we follow it and certainly we also follow these extra quakes because it naturally gives an indication that something is happening. « 

The land giant in Svartsengi

When the eruption has near the power plant in Svartsengi, its operations have been transferred to the Reykjanes power plant where the same facilities can be found.

However, the hryvnia that is now measured is right at the Reykjanes power plant, but Tomas says it has really only happened today.

« These earthquakes have been completely on the whole spine. This is just an active area and is shaking and has done it for a long time. But as a matter of fact, the land giant is in Svartsengi and if it erupts then people expect it to come up somewhere in this Sunnukar series. «
