5 Hynor Lillestrøm - making hydrogen green Hynor Lillestrøm is both a hydrogen technology test center and one of the most advanced refueling stations in the world, located just north of Oslo. At the station hydrogen is produced from landfill gas, hydro power and local solar power. The test center facilitates R&D projects of international importance, both on hydrogen production, compression and second generation carbon capture technologies. Hynor Lillestrøm is the result of a broad collaboration where ambitious local and regional authorities play a crucial role for its success. HYDROGEN - AKERSHUS ENERGY PARK WELCOME Lillestrøm Centre of Expertise Anita Orlund CEO, Lillestøm Business Area FCEV development in Europe Frank Meijer European Fleet Sales & Remarketing Manager at Hyundai Motor Europe Hydrogen development in Denmark Mikael Sloth Business Development Manager H2 Logic The Oslo Region Joined forces on Hydrogen Bjørn Simonsen Secretary of the Norwegian Hydrogen Council HYOP - a dedicated hydrogen operating company Ulf Hafseld, Managing Director, HYOP AS Akershus Energipark - a sustainable and innovative energy park Frank Sagvik, Manager, Akershus Energi Esval Miljøpark (Environmental park) Romerike Biogas plant The Waste-to-Energy Agency s (EGE) biogas plant at Romerike processes food waste from the Oslo region. At the innovatively designed plant the waste is utilized to produce liquid biogas (LBG) and bio fertilizer. The liquid biogas fuels city busses and waste collection vehicles, and the bio fertilizer is used for agricultural purposes. This creates a closed loop, where waste resources are exploited in the best manner possible. The production started January this year with the capacity to fuel 135 buses and fertilize 100 medium-sized local farms. In 2012 EGE, and its industrial partner Cambi, won a National Innovation Award for the design of the plant and the cooperation between public sector and industry.
