Arctic Solar Panels in Svalbard

In the remote Svalbard archipelago of Norway, situated in perpetual winter darkness, a groundbreaking project has been completed: the installation of the world''s northernmost ground solar panels. This innovative initiative holds the potential to assist isolated Arctic communities in their transition to clean energy.

Arctic Towns in Transition: Norway''s commitment towards a new energy

Some of these technologies include: solar panels (PV), wind turbines, heat pumps connected to geothermal and both heat and electricity storage. Solar panels provide the base load required during summer; however, Svalbard does not see the light of sun for more than 3 months of the year and cold winter temperatures result in higher energy

Testing out the power of solar energy in Svalbard, Norway

Store Norske Energi, a state-owned energy company based in Longyearbyen, is testing whether solar energy could be used to transition Spitsbergen to emissions-free, hybrid energy. The company has installed 360 solar panels along with a battery bank and thermal storage system at Isfjord Radio, an old shipping radio station.
