To ensure supply for its customers, Hyundai will contribute to the costs of operating Hynion’s hydrogen refuelling station in Høvik, near Oslo. This cooperation is a strategic step towards the expansion of the infrastructure in Norway.

The Høvik station is currently the only operational hydrogen station in Norway, making it important to keep fully operational. Hyundai’s financial support will facilitate the improvements and upgrades needed to double its capacity. Plans include adding a second pump and replacing the payment system.

This partnership is part of Hyundai’s global strategy to promote hydrogen technology and infrastructure. “we look forward to an ongoing close cooperation to promote the increasing use of hydrogen as a fuel for vehicles,” says Seong Woong Suh, CEO Hyundai Motor Norway.

As well as operating the Høvik station, Hynion also runs a station at Porsgrunn, which is currently closed pending re-certification. The company is also looking into the possibility of setting up new hydrogen refuelling stations in Norway.
