Working in the Hydrogen Department

The Hydrogen Department is responsible for building Statkraft’s renewable hydrogen activities.

We have through our team of business developers built a substantial pipeline as a starting point with projects in many key locations like Finnfjord, Mo, Tyssedal, Herøya and Gothenburg, in addition we have been selected as fuel supplier for the Greenbulk coastal freight project with Heidelberg and Felleskjøpet. The team has recently been strenghtened with a number of technical experts to mature the projects further.

The maritime sector will play an important role in building the hydrogen economy in Norway, and Statkraft is building a substantial portfolio there with activities within compressed hydrogen, green ammonia and green methanol to supply various types of vessels and customer needs.
