Krafla Geothermal Area

Daniel Barter Photography on Facebook

This otherworldly region is home to the Krafla Caldera which is a 10km long, is 2km deep, cauldron-like geological feature resting on the edge of the Eurasian and American tectonic plates. A collapsed, but still active volcanic area, in total there has been 29 recorded eruptions. Between 1975 and 1984 there was a volcanic episode within the Krafla volcano. It involved nine volcanic eruptions and fifteen uplift and subsidence events.

It is now home to geothermal power station capable of producing 60 MW. Which is Iceland's largest geothermal power station and draws heat from 33 boreholes, 15 of which are usually active at any one time.
