In an ocean of pessimistic articles about a self-sufficiant European battery industry, it's relieving to read articles like this. Last week, Finansavisen's Kapital published an article where Lars Lysdahl, partner in Rystad Energy, elaborates on reasons to invest in the European battery industry, and specifically in Norway. With cheap and green electricity, this energy-intensive industry is in advantagous to locate in Norway. Lysdahl also points out that batteries' competitiveness is not only based on price, which is the main source of scepticism around European battery industry. He mentions that lower geo-political risk increases the acceptance for stiffer prices, as well as sustainability. Taking a look at the oil-, hydropower- and aluminium industry, being behind the competitors has not been an obstacle for Norwegian production. There are therefore good reasons to believe that this industry, with is exponentially growing demand, has a bright future. Overall, Nordic Batteries are excited to participate in battery market during this rapid transformation, and provide optimism regarding the centralization of the battery production chain. As Truls Johansen in Elinor Batteries says: "It seems absurd to produce much needed batteries for storing renewable energy, but use fossil energy in the production". Thank you, Lars Lysdahl, for communicating the benefits and bright future of the Norwegian battery adventure. https://lnkd.in/dh6QVKsM #EnergyTransition #NordicBatteries #BatteryTechnology #sustainability #innovation #norwegianenergy #greenenergy #technology #startups #selfsufficiant #europeanenergy

Using hydrogen as fuel is a natural step in this development and the versatility of HAV Hydrogen’s 𝐙𝐄𝐏𝐎𝐃®, coupled with Norwegian Hydrogen’s hydrogen infrastructure, represent what is required to realise such ambitions,” says Markku Vedder, CEO of the Maris Fiducia Group. 🗣 “As a specialist supplier and integrator of maritime fuel cell solutions, there is obviously a limit to how much we can influence the maritime industry on our own. By collaborating with a shipowner and a producer of green hydrogen, we enable a value chain approach that can tear down further barriers towards realisation of hydrogen as maritime fuel,” says Kristian Osnes, managing director of HAV Hydrogen, which is part of Euronext Growth Oslo-listed HAV Group ASA. 🗣 “The cooperation with Maris Fiducia and their founder Markku Vedder, proves there are shipowners with the vision and capability to develop zero-emission shipping solutions. We look forward to the journey onwards together with Maris Fiducia, establishing corridors for sustainable shipping throughout Europe”, says Jens Berge, CEO of Norwegian Hydrogen. 🔗 Read full press release: https://lnkd.in/giq69FpZ #hydrogen #maritimefuel #collaboration

The EU has approved €1.4 billion in state aid to accelerate the development and deployment of hydrogen fuel cells, technologies, and infrastructure in seven EU member states and expect a further €3.3 billion in private investments to be unlocked. Despite Sweden's fortunate energy conditions and technological expertise for becoming a leader in the hydrogen industry, the country is not involved in the approved funding. Central and Southern Europe are advancing rapidly in this sector, and it is becoming increasingly evident that our presence there will continue to grow. Meanwhile, the Nordics, including Sweden, risk falling behind. #Hy2Move European Commission #hydrogen
Estland, Frankrike, Tyskland, Italien, Nederländerna, Slovakien och Spanien har tagit beslut att satsa 1,4 miljarder euro från offentliga medel för vätgasprojektet #Hy2Move. Stödet från länderna förväntas attrahera minst 3,3 miljarder euro från privat kapital. Hy2Move är ett så kallat Important Projects of Common Interest (#IPCEI), som godkänns av European Commission för att stödja värdekedjan för vätgas. Det är anmärkningsvärt att Sverige, som är en av de länder i Europa som har bäst förutsättningar för grön vätgasproduktion, inte är med. Sverige riskerar att gå miste om stärkt konkurrenskraft, exportmöjligheter och arbetstillfällen. #makeith2appen #hydrogen #hydrogennow

Big news for the future of green transportation! 🚛💨 A new hydrogen refuelling station has opened at the The Port of Gothenburg, strategically located at one of Sweden’s busiest truck routes 🚚. This station, operated by Hydri, is the first of many planned to support a national hydrogen infrastructure. With access to green hydrogen, this move brings heavy land transport one step closer to a carbon-neutral future 🌱. Viktor Allgurén, Head of Innovation at the Port of Gothenburg, highlighted that, this location is ideal for the hydrogen refuelling station, positioning the port to lead the transition to both electric and hydrogen-powered heavy transport.⚡ Shoutout to Qarlbo Energy AB and Swedish Energy Agency for making this happen! 💡 #Sustainability #GreenTransport #HydrogenEnergy #Innovation #PortofGothenburg #Hydri #QarlboEnergy #CleanEnergy #FutureofTransport

🚢✨ The Port of Gothenburg is leading the way in sustainable transportation with the launch of a new green hydrogen refueling station for heavy traffic! Strategically positioned near one of Sweden’s busiest truck gates, Gothenburg RoRo Terminal, this station exemplifies how ports can adapt to clean energy advancements and support a transition to a carbon-neutral transport sector. “The large flow of trucks to the port and the possibility to refuel work machinery make the location for this hydrogen refueling station ideal,” stated Viktor Allgurén, Head of Innovation at the Port of Gothenburg. By integrating this facility with existing electric charging points, the port sets a benchmark for others to emulate in creating a comprehensive clean energy infrastructure. 🚛 🌬 “This refueling station paves the way towards a carbon-neutral transport sector,” added Michel Thomas, CEO of Qarlbo Energy AB and Chairman of the Board at Hydri, the company operating the station. With plans to develop a network of around 20 hydrogen stations across Sweden by 2025, supported by the Swedish Energy Agency, Hydri’s initiative showcases a scalable model for ports worldwide. 🌍 🔋 #SustainableTransport #RenewableEnergy #PortOfGothenburg #CleanEnergyLeadership #CarbonNeutral #InfrastructureInnovation 🔗 https://lnkd.in/g7BAbYV2
