Enova's Support Boosts Hydrogen Projects in Norwegian Shipping Sector
Key Ideas
  • Enova is supporting five hydrogen production projects aimed at advancing the use of hydrogen in Norwegian shipping.
  • The projects will collectively contribute to a production capacity of 100 MW, producing about 40 tons of hydrogen per day.
  • These initiatives are expected to reduce emissions by 200,000 tonnes of CO2 annually, equivalent to 5.5% of the national emissions from shipping and fishing.
  • Enova is heavily investing in hydrogen and ammonia as maritime fuels, with new programs supporting production, infrastructure, and vessels in Norway.
Enova, a Norwegian company, is providing support for five hydrogen production projects that are set to revolutionize the use of hydrogen in the country's shipping industry. These projects, funded by Enova's initiative, are expected to create a production capacity of 100 MW, generating approximately 40 tons of hydrogen daily. This substantial production will also lead to a significant reduction in emissions, with an estimated 200,000 tonnes of CO2 saved per year. This reduction accounts for 5.5% of the national emissions from shipping and fishing, showcasing the potential impact of these hydrogen initiatives. Enova's focus on hydrogen and ammonia as maritime fuels is evident through increased investments, aiming to establish functional value chains for these fuels in Norway. Enova's plans extend to supporting the development of infrastructure and vessels necessary for the adoption of hydrogen and ammonia in the maritime sector. Furthermore, Enova is looking towards enhancing support for bunkering facilities for ammonia along the Norwegian coast, signaling a comprehensive approach to promoting sustainable fuel alternatives in the shipping industry.
