Mannvit Engineering of Iceland played a leading role in the design & development of the Hellisheidi Geothermal Power Plant, a combined heat and power plant. The Hellisheidi geothermal power plant is a combined heat and power plant (CHP) located in SW-Iceland, on one of the largest wet geothermal systems (high-enthalpy) in Iceland. The plants purpose is to meet increasing demand for electricity and hot water for space heating. Development plans call for incremental or phased expansion from 2006 to 2010 to an estimated maximum output of 300 MWe and 400 MWth, making it the largest geothermal combined heat and power plant in Iceland. The plant owner is Reykjavik Energy.
