The partnership will focus on scaling hydrogen production over the next two to three years, while also laying the groundwork for large-scale, offshore wind-integrated hydrogen ventures in the following phase.
The partnership will leverage HydePoint’s innovative technology for hydrogen production in maritime environments alongside Norwegian Hydrogen’s expertise in developing and operating hydrogen infrastructure. Initially, the focus will be on near-shore projects, combining both companies’ capabilities to deliver mid-sized green hydrogen solutions that can support industries in transitioning to zero-emission energy.
Beyond these near-term projects, both companies are committed to a long-term strategy of developing large-scale offshore hydrogen production, particularly in combination with offshore wind farms. This collaboration reflects their shared ambition to lead the green transition by integrating hydrogen into the renewable energy landscape and creating sustainable energy ecosystems at sea.
Elin Steinsland, CEO of HydePoint, commented: “We are thrilled to collaborate with Norwegian Hydrogen on advancing technology for near-shore hydrogen projects. By combining our hydrogen technology expertise with Norwegian Hydrogen’s strengths in project development and asset operation, we are well-positioned to accelerate impactful, sustainable energy solutions for various industrial sectors.”
Jens Berge, CEO of Norwegian Hydrogen, said: “We are excited to partner with HydePoint as part of our mission to deliver reliable, green hydrogen solutions in Europe. Together, we are aligning our technical expertise to fast-track projects that will contribute to the decarbonization of a wide range of industrial segments.”
