Veidekke, one of the largest contractors in Scandinavia, has extended its collaboration with Norwegian Hydrogen by contracting the supply of green hydrogen to its newly converted plant in Ålesund, Norway. This partnership follows a successful initiative earlier this year where Norwegian Hydrogen delivered green hydrogen to Veidekke's first asphalt plant in Kristiansund, which is known for being the world's first asphalt factory to solely use hydrogen for the heating process. By expanding this partnership, Veidekke is solidifying its dedication to reducing carbon emissions in its operations. The official opening of the new asphalt production plant in Ålesund on September 4th marked a significant milestone for Veidekke. The company aims to transition from using traditional fuels like natural gas and diesel to green hydrogen, in an effort to significantly decrease the CO2 emissions associated with asphalt production. Simen Skaare Eriksen, CCO at Norwegian Hydrogen, emphasized the environmental benefits of using green hydrogen in various industries and commended Veidekke for its commitment to sustainability. The partnership between Veidekke and Norwegian Hydrogen is a step towards a more environmentally friendly asphalt production process and signifies a joint effort to combat climate change.
