Nel ASA is a Norwegian company based in Oslo. Nel is a global company providing solutions for the production, storage and distribution of hydrogen from renewable energy sources. Nel is listed in the OBX Index of the Oslo Stock Exchange. The largest shareholder is Clearstream Banking S.A. with a stake of over 15%.[1][2]

Group companies

Since 2015, the company has also included the Danish hydrogen filling station manufacturer H2 Logic, and since 2017 the American electrolysis specialist Proton On Site. Together with PowerCell Sweden and Hexagon Composite, Nel founded the Hyon joint venture in September 2017 with the aim of establishing fuel cell-powered vehicles in the maritime sector in particular.

Nel is part of the H2Bus consortium since June 2019. The target is the deployment of 1,000 hydrogen fuel cell buses in Europe.[3]

History

The company started in 1927. In 1940, the world's largest water electrolysis plant was built in Rjukan, Norway, with a total capacity of more than 30,000 Nm3/hour of hydrogen from hydropower. In 1988, Nel launched the world's first electrolyzer to offer asbestos-free alkaline electrolysers. H2 Logic A/S, subsidiary of NEL ASA, has executed a binding technology transfer agreement with Mitsubishi Kakoki Kaisha, Ltd. (MKK), member of the Mitsubishi Group companies, in 2015.[4] Nel will set up at least 20 hydrogen refuelling stations in Norway by 2020.[5]

Nel is currently involved in several projects worldwide, including the commissioning of the first hydrogen-powered train in Germany as part of the H2 West Coast Consortium.[6] In February 2019, it became known that a framework agreement for Switzerland had been concluded with Hyundai Motor Company for the supply of 60 - 80 MW of a total of 1,000 expected trucks in the first phase and hydrogen required for other applications. In Australia, NEL is involved in a power-to-gas (solar power to hydrogen) project.[7]

Another major project is planned in partnership with the American start-up Nikola Motor Company, a manufacturer of hydrogen-powered trucks. In the coming years, the company plans to set up or expand a hydrogen infrastructure (filling stations and electrolysers) in the United States.[8][9][10][11][12] In 2018, the American Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy investigated the technical side of the NEL A-300 alkaline electrolyser.[13]
