Everfuel, H2Fuel move ahead with first joint hydrogen station in Norway
Expected to be ready by mid-2022, the hydrogen station in Kjelsrud, Oslo, will be a first step in the joint plan for a nationwide green hydrogen distribution system.
Everfuel - H2Fuel move forward with their plans for the development of a nationwide green hydrogen distribution system in Norway following the lease of a property in Oslo to install a new hydrogen fueling station, expected to ready by the end of June 2022.
Located at Kjelsrud, the station will target trucks and heavy transport segments mainly. H2Fuel will also seek approval for installing a mobile fueling unit for taxis at the site already in mid-2021.
“The hydrogen fueling station at Kjelsrud will be a first important step in implementing the joint plan for the development of a nationwide green hydrogen distribution system in Norway, starting in Oslo”, says Jacob Krogsgaard, the CEO of Everfuel.
Everfuel and H2Fuel recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) whereby Everfuel will invest NOK 26 (€2.5m) million for 51% ownership interest in H2Fuel, a subsidiary of Nel Hydrogen, which will be renamed Everfuel Norway Retail AS. The parties plan to execute the final agreement in December 2020.
Separately, Everfuel announced an agreement to acquire H2CO AS, an Uno-X owned company, which has two hydrogen fueling stations and hydrogen distribution assets in Norway. Final closing of the agreement is expected in early 2021.
The development of Kjelsrud is subject to public approvals from local and national authorities.
