Iceland: The Nordic Island nation plans for a sustainable future

Iceland’s economy looks to rebound by 5.2% in 2022, driven by its attractive business climate, strong export market, and a return of its much-valued tourist market. Alongside tourism, Iceland’s fishing, finance, and manufacturing industries form the backbone of the economy. Ranking in the OECD’s top 10 for ‘freest economies’, Iceland’s fiscal, monetary, trade and investment policies make it a welcome environment for doing business. This open market system will help the economy flourish as the government looks to use innovation and education to accelerate growth for the post-pandemic recovery.

Path to Net-Zero

Green data centres, carbon-neutral aluminium facilities, renewable methanol plants, vertical farms, clean-energy  greenhouses, sustainable aquaculture, micro-algae production and mass reforestation projects, are all part of Iceland’s sustainability efforts.
