I guess you are talking about Kárahnjúkar Hydropower Plant.
Did you read the book <<Draumalandið — Sjálfshjálparbók handa hræddri þjóð>> or watch the documentary <<Draumalandið>>? Me: Neither, but I am interested. I only learned about this project recently.
The most shocking fact about the whole project (from Wiki):
The total affected area according to the environmental impact assessment, outlines that a total of 3,000 km2 or 741,316 acres were affected by the project's construction. That is approximately 3% of Iceland's total land mass.
