CO₂ measurement systems for geothermal areas and power plants
Neskortes develops and operates robust, cost-effective systems for long-term monitoring of CO₂ emissions in dryland and high-temperature geothermal environments, including areas surrounding geothermal power plants.
Our work supports environmental monitoring, regulatory reporting, and evidence-based decision-making in geothermal energy and land-use management.
Targeted CO₂ monitoring in challenging environments
Neskortes designs, deploys, and operates environmental measurement systems tailored for demanding field conditions. We specialize in long-term CO₂ flux measurements in geothermal and dryland environments where conventional monitoring solutions are costly or impractical.
Our systems are optimized for durability, traceability, and cost efficiency, enabling continuous monitoring near active geothermal fields and energy facilities.

About us
This page describes a collaborative project between Neskortes ehf, the University of Iceland, the Technical College of Iceland, and the Soil Conservation Service of Iceland, focused on the measurement of greenhouse gas emissions — in particular carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions from dryland environments.
The projects are led by Ólafur S. Andrésson, Professor Emeritus, Pálmi Ragnar Pétursson, Electrical Engineer, and Gísli Sigurgeirsson, Electronics Engineer.
Our collaboration partners include:
Belgingur ehf, the Soil Conservation Service of Iceland, Landsvirkjun, the Technical College of Iceland, and Svarmi ehf.
