Samherji fiskeldi ehf. has entered into agreements with HS Orka for the development of land-based salmon farming in the Resource Park by the Reykjanes Power Plant. The goal is to produce a wholesome quality product with a low ecological footprint. The company has secured access to sea and electricity to produce up to 40 thousand tons of salmon on land annually. Warm seawater will be used in the production, a resource stream from the cooling of the Reykjanes Power Plant. Samherji fiskeldi has also reached an agreement with landowners for the development.
