This project brings together technology from different sectors needed to harness an unused resource, geothermal gas for methane production. The coupling of this technology with the geothermal gas stream has not been done before. If successful, it will provide a new path for domestic production of a sustainable fuel, methane, and could lead the way to utilization of other geothermal resources in Iceland, and elsewhere, for methane production. The methane produced from geothermal gas could make a significant contribution to meets Iceland’s goals in reducing CO2 emission from transport by 10% in 2020.
