Second largest geothermal power station in the world

edit

Largest or second largest geothermal power station in the world? Where's the largest one? [1] says "constitutes the largest power station of Iceland and the second largest geothermal power station in the world." but also "Today, the geothermal power plant of Hellisheidarvirkjun produces about 303 Megawatts of electricity and up to 400 Megawatts of thermal energy, ranking Hellisheidarvirkjun geothermal plant as the largest geothermal power station in the world, in terms of installed capacity."

Neither List of largest power stations in the world#Geothermal nor List of geothermal power stations lists any plant with more than 303 MW.

The second reference [2] seems to be dated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by WikiHannibal (talkcontribs) 13:19, 3 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Reinjection into a Fractured Reservoir

this paper titled Reinjection into a Fractured Reservoir – Induced Seismicity and Other Challenges in Operating Reinjection Wells in the Hellisheiði Field, SW - Iceland is very informative. EdwardLane (talk) 07:16, 20 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
