IMG_8168_dam wall.jpg Karahnjukar dam and Halslon reservoir, a massive new contorversial hydro electricity project in North East Iceland, in the wilderness area of Vatnajokull, created by damming the Jokuls a Dal river. Controversial as it flooded a huge area of one of Europes last wilderness areas, that was home to nesting Whooper Swans and Pink Footed Geese. The project does however produce 40% of Icelands electricity from renewables. The projects statistics are as follows, power generation, 700MW, gross head, 600 metres, Max flow 144 M/sec, Halslon Lake area 57KM squared, storage volume 2.1 million metres, damheight 198m (the tallest in Europe) headrace tunnels 73km. 100 % of Icelands electricity is generated from renewables, 70% from hydro and 30% from geothermal.

IMG_3094_dam.jpg Thirlmere reservoir in the Lake District UK, the day before the hosepipe ban comes into affect in the North West. United Utilities applied for the drought order, after the driest start to the year since 1929, with less than 50% of normal rainfall. The drought comes hot on the heals of the worst floods that Cumbria has ever seen, when in November 2009, United Utilities had to open the emergency valves to let water out, as the dam was in danger of collapsing when the water reached unprecendented high levels. Climate modelling shows that as the atmosphere warms we are more likely to move to a cycle of flood followed by drought.
