North Ammonia, a developer of Renewable Fuels of Non-Biological Origin (RFNBO) ammonia in Norway, and Höegh Evi, a global leader in marine energy infrastructure, have signed an agreement to explore the development of a hydrogen supply chain for European industrial users using green ammonia as a transport medium.
Norway’s Renewable Resources to Power Hydrogen Transport
Norway’s abundant renewable energy provides a strong foundation for producing clean ammonia, a key carrier for efficient long-distance hydrogen transport. Under this partnership, North Ammonia and Höegh Evi will:
✔ Develop scalable infrastructure to enable efficient hydrogen transport from Norway to Europe
✔ Explore technical and commercial solutions for ammonia-to-hydrogen conversion
✔ Leverage Höegh Evi’s floating import terminals featuring innovative ammonia-to-hydrogen cracking technology
“Ammonia is a versatile energy carrier with multiple end-user markets. While we are actively developing RFNBO ammonia supply for the maritime industry, our collaboration with Höegh Evi allows us to expand our reach and bring clean hydrogen to industrial users across Europe.”
— Mikkel Tørud, CEO of North Ammonia
“As Europe moves towards cleaner energy solutions, hydrogen will be vital for decarbonizing hard-to-abate sectors like steel, chemicals, and heavy transport. This partnership combines North Ammonia’s production expertise with Höegh Evi’s advanced marine infrastructure, helping to connect Norwegian renewable resources with Europe’s growing clean hydrogen market.”
— Nils Jakob Hasle, EVP Clean Energy, Höegh Evi
Strengthening Norway-Europe Energy Cooperation
By integrating green ammonia production and hydrogen infrastructure, North Ammonia and Höegh Evi aim to create a reliable, scalable supply chain that supports Europe’s climate and energy goals while reinforcing Norway’s position as a key clean energy exporter.
