Hydrogen Hits the Roads

Today marked an important step for hydrogen development in Norway, when the Innovation Zone of Hynor Lillestrøm was formally opened. The station has been open for almost a year at Akershus Energy Park and has serviced a number of FCEV´s[1] during that time. The Innovation Zone is a part of the station where innovative new hydrogen technologies will be tested and demonstrated, in conjunction with the operation of the station.

Following the national H2Mobility initiatives that have been started across Europe in Germany, UK, France, Scandinavia, the Netherlands, Switzerland and Portugal.

A report of the U.S. Department of Energy indicates, that in warehouses operating for two or three shifts a day, hydrogen-powered forklift trucks can be used at a lower cost than conventional battery-powered material handling equipment.
