𝗛𝘆𝗱𝗿𝗼 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗡𝗼𝗿𝘄𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗛𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗻’𝘀 𝗼𝗯𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮 𝘀𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗳𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 At Hencon, we are leading the way in vehicle electrification within the aluminum industry, driven by our unwavering commitment to sustainability and innovation. Electrification is not just about emissions reduction; it is about transforming the operation, making the processes more efficient, and contributing to a greener future. The vision for electrification encompasses sustainable innovation, with the development of electric vehicles like the E-APTV that minimize environmental impact and improve operational efficiency. We utilize cutting-edge technology to optimize energy usage and contribute to reduce the carbon footprint while maintaining operational performance. Recently, Norsk Hydro had the privilege of hosting a visit from key political figures who share our dedication to greener energy solutions. In the photo, taken on Tuesday at Hydro Sunndal, May 28th, 2024, we see, in front of the new E-APTV by Hencon at the left, Jonas Gahr Støre, the Prime Minister of Norway. In the middle stands Hydro's new Plant Manager, Wenche Eldegard (previously plant manager at both Høyanger and Årdal), and to the right, Hydro's new Executive Vice President of Aluminium Metal, Hanne Simensen. This visit underscores the importance of collaboration between industry and government in achieving our shared sustainability goals. Engaging with key stakeholders, including politicians and industry leaders, is crucial for addressing the power situation and the need for increased green energy. The close ties between Sunndal and the Labour Party, represented by Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, underscore Hydro community’s strong commitment to these goals. Together, we are working towards a more sustainable future for the aluminum industry and beyond. #ServingProgress #EAPTV #AluminiumIndustry

It's exciting times in the CCS space - momentum is certainly gathering! This week alone, Aker Carbon Capture announced a pre-FEED for a Just Catch application in Sweden and a feasibility study for at a waste-to-energy facility in France. Year-to-date, Aker Carbon Capture has now contracted studies, Mobile Test Unit campaigns and pre-FEEDs for a combined capture capacity of 8.7 million tonnes of CO2 per year. And today, a final investment decision was made for the major Porthos CO2 storage project in the Netherlands - the first storage project in the EU to do so. The project entails the transport of CO2 through the port of Rotterdam to depleted gas fields in the North Sea starting in 2026, with the aim of storing about 2.5 m tonnes / year for 15 years. 🌎 #netzero #energytransition #decarbonization
We have been awarded a pre-FEED (pre-Front End Engineering Design) for a #JustCatch application by a Swedish energy company! The award follows an earlier feasibility study contract for another Swedish company, Söderenergi AB, announced in June, further strengthening Aker Carbon Capture’s position in the growing Swedish market. “We are pleased to see positive market development in Sweden. We have seen a significant boost in interest across the Scandinavian market after we won a contract in May to deliver five Just Catch units for Ørsted in Denmark. The level of activity has been high and growing at our Swedish office in Stockholm this year,” said Jon Christopher Knudsen, Chief Commercial Officer at Aker Carbon Capture. Sweden aims to become carbon neutral by 2045 at the latest. After 2045, Sweden is to achieve negative net CO2 emissions. As part of these ambitions, Sweden is positioning itself to become a global leader in generating high quality and durable carbon dioxide removal (#CDR) credits from bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (#BECCS). The country has a large bio-energy sector. #RoadToNetZero #CCUS

A very important topic for the green energy transition in Germany and Denmark:
For Christmas, I’m asking Santa to grant my wish for a green hydrogen pipeline between Denmark and Germany – that’s funded the right way. The pipeline is vital to help reach national energy targets e.g. producing 4-6 GW green hydrogen in Denmark, and 10GW installed H2 electrolyser capacity in Germany, by 2030. The two countries have already signed an MoU to achieve that pipeline connection by 2028. Danish politicians are meeting soon to decide who picks up the bill. But you can’t expect only the producers and buyers of green hydrogen to split the cost of the pipeline right from the start! Instead, we propose that the Danish Parliament provide loan guarantees for establishing the pipeline. A user fee will finance the pipeline long term, but our proposal adds a safety net for first movers among producers and off-takers. It’s been done before with major infrastructure projects like the Great Belt Bridge and the Fehmarn Belt connection. Read more about the funding proposal in my op-ed co-authored with @DanskIndustri’s @TroelsRanis in Børsen newspaper today (in Danish): https://lnkd.in/dEbRhcqS Do you agree?

What are the advantages and disadvantages of the different Carbon Capture technologies? Join us i Aarhus for our seminar on Carbon Capture technologies and visit the Danish Technological Institutes new Carbon Capture test laboratory. Many heat & power producers and waste to energy plants in Denmark are considering investing in carbon capture equipment as massive public CCS tenders are avaialble. However, it can be difficult to make qualified investment decisions when there is so little operational experience and there are competing technologies and suppliers to choose from. Together with Green Hub Denmark and CLEAN we have therefore gathered some of the worlds leading suppliers of carbon capture systems to present their solutions and have a discussion of the pros and cons on January 10th in Aarhus. Among the presenters are: Aker Carbon Capture, Capsol Technologies ASA, Linde, Novozymes and Svante Inc. Follow the link to see the program and register https://lnkd.in/dzTMq_8X

a different form of offshore energy... One that we don't know a lot about, such as effects on marine ecology. that is why it is essential to support these kind of demonstration projects
We have ended the year with a BANG, we start the year with a SPLASH! SolarDuck has launched the first two platforms of the offshore demonstration project (named "Merganser") into the water at TMA Logistics in Amsterdam, Netherlands. This important milestone is the result of a true team effort, working together with our partner RWE and many dedicated suppliers and research institutes like Norsk Hydro, Damen,, TNO, Delft University of Technology, MARIN (Maritime Research Institute Netherlands), Deltares and many others. The pilot will withstand extreme offshore conditions, including high waves up to 13,5 meters, strong winds and a corrosive offshore environment. Merganser will enable SolarDuck’s technology to be fully certified for North Sea conditions, allowing us to capture learnings, deliver upcoming projects in the Netherlands, Japan and Malaysia as well as accelerate the commercialization of the technology to reach our 1GW ambition by 2030.
