Unalaska, AK – Akutan is a small island community in the eastern Aleutians with ever expanding growth potential. The town of 90 people hosts one of the largest fish processing plants in the state. Soon, they might also be home to one of the largest geothermal energy plants. With over $2.5 million from an Alaska Renewable Energy grant, the city of Akutan is exploring the potential of their active volcano. KUCB's Anne Hillman visited Hot Springs Bay on Akutan Island.
