Geothermal has captivated many around the world who have seen it up close and personal, had the chance to work in the industry or actually have been personally impacted by the resource and its many benefits. Geothermal has transformed electricity systems, heating infrastructure, and entire communities. While clean electricity and heating/cooling are important for the future, the need for access and production of sustainable food will also be crucial. One company, Matorka is utilizing geothermal in Iceland to help produce sustainable arctic char year around. We sit down with Arni Pall Einarsson to talk about the importance of sustainable agriculture.
Ensuring access to food, water, and energy are some of the key objectives for the next couple decades, but doing so in a sustainable way is equally important. Geothermal can not only help address the access to energy for developing countries, but it also can play a significant role in eliminating food deserts, producing sustainable food even in climates that previously prohibited it. I sit down with Arni Pall Einarsson, Chief Commercial Officer at Matorka to talk about the fish farming industry and how they are pioneering with sustainable arctic char production utilizing geothermal.
