冰岛拥有丰富的水力和地热资源,但开发这些资源成本高昂,而且往往很危险。众多的瀑布和水力发电设施几乎提供了该国所有的电力,而地热活跃的大西洋中部裂谷穿越冰岛,为建筑物提供热量。然而,存在着频繁火山爆发和地震活动的威胁,目前的能源供应被认为足以满足不多的国内需求。如果冰岛人民选择大规模的能源开发用于出口目的,作者预测几十年的问题和挫折。
Iceland has abundant resources in the form of water power and geothermal energy, but development of these sources will be costly and often dangerous. Numerous waterfalls and hydroelectric facilities provide nearly all of the country's electric power, while the geothermally active mid-Atlantic rift crosses Iceland and provides heat for buildings. There is a threat of frequent volcanic eruptions and seismic activity, however, and the present energy supplies have been felt to be adequate to meet the modest domestic demand. If the Icelandic people elect a large-scale energy development for export purposes, the author projects decades of problems and frustrations.
