Plentiful access to affordable electricity, easy transportation and not at least, engaged and focused entrepreneurs make us believe in a successful development of the project. We will from our side supply resources and competence from optimalization of large-scale electrolyser plants and assist in communication and discussions with clients and in developing new value chains for hydrogen. Such developments take time, but we clearly see that ambitions and plans are becoming increasingly realistic and expect this development to accelerate”.
