Installed capacity of operating assets, not electricity generated — a GW of solar and a GW of gas do not produce the same energy in a year.
Capacity built per year
2.8 GW operating across 38 tracked assets, 138 MW under construction · last five years down 55% on the five before.
Built from assets operating today, by commissioning year — plants that closed before now are not in the data, so early years show only what survived. The forward bars are capacity physically under construction, not a forecast. A further 138 MW is under construction with no stated completion year. 30 MW of operating capacity has no commissioning year and sits outside the curve. 1 asset has an announced retirement date; closures are not otherwise tracked, so no net-capacity line is drawn.
96% of Iceland’s tracked capacity has an owner recorded.
