Technology concept/solution:
Risavika Hydrogen Hub – an ambition for a local test center for hydrogen production from natural gas, biogas, electricity, and with thermal capacities. The test center will primarily focus on small pilot plants and testing key components at medium and potentially (with time and support from the industry/society) full-sized industrial hydrogen production pilots.

The project’s secondary goal will be to develop a commercial integration of hydrogen along with a local CO2 value chain, where produced CO2 and H2 can act as raw materials in local industry and research facilities. The plan is to develop a local solid carbon value chain, where produced carbon can act as raw material in local industry and research facilities.

Owner:
NORCE, Lyse, Seid, ETN – ambition to partner with local/regional companies with competencies and interest in hydrogen/CO2 value chains.

Funding:
TBA by Q2-2023

Timeline:
