[edit] Recently in the news
First off, this stub should also be marked for cleanup.
According to Google Earth, a source I consider questionable, Samsoe is also home to the world's largest permanently-installed tree maze, called the Samsoe "Labyrinten." Can I get a ruling from Guinness?
Taiwan's Academica Sinica's Tsong Tien-Tzou, via his translator Eddy Chang, reported that Samsoe's residents have been increasing the use of super-efficient "semiconductor thin-film solar cells," though this source of power is more expensive than average for renewable energy.
They also built a dedicated water heating plant to help them manage their icy winters, powered by both solar energy and biofuels, which they grow themselves on the island.
Also, they're currently reinvesting the money from selling the wind-generated energy into putting up more wind-powered turbines.
Other spellings of this island include "Samsoe."
This above is my original writing.
