Iceland is another great example of this. I recently visited there and they have a huge surplus of energy. They have heated sidewalks, everyone heats their houses 24/7 and they're still only using some tiny fraction of their natural geothermal energy (I think around 2%).
If I had to build a supercomputer for long-running computations, I'd build it there.
