Svalbard and Jan Mayen

Svalbard and Jan Mayen are remote Arctic territories administered by Norway, located between mainland Norway and the North Pole. The power infrastructure in these regions is relatively small but reliable, catering to the needs of the sparse population and research facilities. The power plugs commonly used are Type C and Type F, which are standard across much of Europe. The voltage is 230V, with a frequency of 50Hz, consistent with European standards. Power generation primarily relies on coal and diesel, reflecting the challenges of deploying renewable energy in such harsh environments. Despite the logistical difficulties, the power grid is well-maintained, ensuring a consistent supply of electricity to residents and researchers alike.
