Project (ongoing): HyNor (Økern, Oslo H2 filling station)
Since 2003, StatoilHydro has been pursuing HyNor's goal to establish a hydrogen transportation infrastructure along the nearly 600 kilometre route between Oslo and Stavanger.
The first hydrogen station was opened at Forus in Stavanger in 2006, the second in Porsgrunn in 2007, and now the two new stations are open in Oslo and Lier. HyNor has some 50 partners and manages a fleet of more than 50 hydrogen vehicles made by Mazda, Toyota and Think.
The Norwegian initiative is part of the Scandinavian Hydrogen Highway Partnership (SHHP). Throughout Norway, Sweden and Denmark fifteen major filling stations (dubbed "nodes") and thirty so-called satellites, designed to distribute smaller volumes in more remote areas, are planned. The partnership's ambitions are to get up to a hundred buses, five hundred cars and five hundred speciality vehicles on the roads in Scandinavia in the period 2012 to 2015.
