The Krafla geothermal power plant consists of two 30 megawatt units, with double pressure input and double flow turbines with 5 stages on each side. It draws its energy from 17 high pressure production wells with 110 kg / second of 7.7 bar and, thanks to new technologies, 5 low pressure production wells with 36 kg / s of 2.2 bar. [3]

The other 7 wells are not used and 5 wells no longer even exist. The turbines each consume 52.5 and 17.8 kg / s of high and low pressure steam. If the inlet pressure and mass flow were increased, the power of the two turbines could be increased to 35 megawatts. [4]

One of the additional wells (IDDP-1), which was drilled in the Krafla geothermal reservoir in 1999, is now known to be the hottest geothermal well in the world, as its drilling reaches magma at its point. the lowest with a temperature of 430 °. C. The right to use the well belongs to Mannvit. [5]
