In support of Norway’s ambitious goal to become a low-emission society by 2050, Eurotainer, a global leader in tank container leasing, has partnered with Hexagon Purus, a world leading provider of zero-emission infrastructure and mobility solutions, to launch Type 4 hydrogen storage solutions. This marks the first time these advanced hydrogen storage systems will be available for leasing to industrial customers in Norway, including Norwegian Hydrogen.
Hexagon Purus will provide 380-bar hydrogen distribution systems, designed for the safe and efficient transportation of green hydrogen. These systems will be available through Eurotainer’s leasing network to support hydrogen transport for mobility and industrial applications across Norway and beyond, playing a key role in advancing the country’s hydrogen economy.
Among Eurotainer's customers is Norwegian Hydrogen, already producing green hydrogen at its recently opened Hellesylt Hydrogen Hub, and with additional production facilities in development across the Nordics. The hydrogen produced will be distributed to a group of industrial customers, including construction company Veidekke which will use the green hydrogen to significantly reduce emissions on two of their asphalt production plants in the region. Some of the hydrogen will also be utilized by Vireon, a subsidiary of Norwegian Hydrogen, which aims to become the leading operator of hydrogen refueling stations for heavy transport in the Nordic region.
The new hydrogen storage systems, manufactured at Hexagon Purus’ facility in Weeze, Germany, will be delivered by the end of the year. This collaboration will further expand the distribution of green hydrogen, a key element in Norway’s transition to a sustainable, low-emission future.
