FDE to move forward on the development of two H2 projects in Norway 

FDE, a carbon negative energy producer, announced that following the announcement made on January 16th 2024, it has completed the acquisition of a controlling stake in Greenstat ASA, a leading green energy operator based in Norway, with a strong focus on hydrogen and solar activities, to further strengthen the Group’s position as a leading European low-carbon energy production solutions provider.

A driving force in low carbon hydrogen in Norway

Greenstat is the co-owner of one of the first producing green hydrogen plants in Norway at the Stord Hydrogen Pilot site that has been operating for over a year now.

The company has also committed to Enova, the Norwegian Ministry of Climate and Environment entity focused on promoting a shift towards more environmental-friendly energy and climate technology, to move forward on the development of two H2 projects.

The first project, Hydrogen Hub Agder, is 100% owned by Greenstat and involves the construction of a 20 MW H2 facility dedicated to supplying green H2 to the maritime industry with production expected to start early 2026. ENOVA will support the project costs through a project grant of up to NOK 148,000,000, which represents more than 40% of the total planned investment.

The second project, Glomfjord, is 33% owned by Greenstat and 67% by Neptun Tromsø and relates to the construction of a 20 MW H2 production site of green ammonia dedicated to large fertiliser producer operating in the vicinity, with production expected to start during 2027. Similarly, more than 40% of the planned project costs, for up to NOK 150,000,000, will be financed by a grant from ENOVA.

These two projects moving to the development phase, combined with the existing site already in production, make Greenstat’s H2 portfolio one of the largest H2 portfolio in Scandinavia.
