The Faroese Environment Agency coordinated the installation of a ground source heat pump system in Leirvík, replacing oil burners and utilizing surplus wind power. The system, inaugurated on April 12, 2023, reduces oil use by 70,000-75,000 liters annually and consumes about 350,000 kWh of electricity.

A data-collection system provides performance insights online. The project supports the Faroe Islands' decarbonisation goals by enhancing energy security and efficiency.
