From Rjukan, Norwegian Hydrogen will supply green hydrogen to both existing and new customers in southern Norway and parts of Sweden, offering predictable and competitive terms. When the facility is completed at the end of 2027, it will have an electrolysis capacity of 25 MW. The company is also considering starting some production ahead of full completion.

Norwegian Hydrogen aims to positively contribute to the local community and looks forward to strong collaboration with businesses, authorities and the people of Rjukan.
