Iceland's secret power - Jean-Baptiste P. Koehl

While the weather in Iceland is often cold, wet, and windy, a nearly endless supply of heat bubbles away below the surface.

Koehl explores the two primary models for harnessing the planet's natural heat. Lesson by Jean-Baptiste P. Koehl, directed by Charlotte Arene.
