History of Kråkøya as a hub for green hydrogen
NTE and H2 Marine first partnered in 2021, to create a value chain for green hydrogen. Together, NTE and H2 Marine spearheaded a project with Moen and Salmonor to create a work vessel fueled by hydrogen and a small scale hydrogen production unit. The project received governmental soft funding of 16,4mnok in Q4 2021 (Pilot-E), and is set to be completed by Q4 2023. The production unit (xmW) will be located on Kråkøya, outside Rørvik, and will produce 60kg of hydrogen a day when running at full capacity. The Vessel, a 19ft. Moen NABCAT is a special design and is the first work vessel to solely run on hydrogen.
