Hydrogen Production Plant on the roof of the warehouse
ASKO plant that opened last week, means that hydrogen is to be produced locally at the facility in central Norway, with energy from, among others, 9000 m2 of solar cells on the roof of the ASKO warehouse. Hydrogen will be used as fuel for trucks and distribution vehicles in their own business. The hydrogen production plant will produce over 300 kg hydrogen per liter in full operation.
ASKO has applied to the market for larger distribution vehicles with a range of 500 km that can use hydrogen as fuel. The choice fell on Scania. ASKO has ordered four tiered chassis of 26 tonnes and 21 pallets. The distribution cars are powered electrically by power from fuel cells that use hydrogen as fuel. The distribution cars are under production and will be delivered in the autumn of 2018.
ASKO has in recent years marked itself as a pioneer in environmental work. Not least, they have received great attention for their solar cell and electric distribution vehicles.
With the opening of the hydrogen production plant, ASKO consolidates its position as a leading player in measures that reduce climate emissions.
ASKO has an ambition to become climate neutral. The ambition implies that ASKO will only distribute foodstuffs with renewable fuels by 2020. The ASKO NORWAY hydrogen project is an important part of achieving this ambition.
Hydrogen technology has a great potential as a zero-emission distribution vehicle for longer distances, while electric distribution cars can be more suitable for urban distribution. The first electric distribution cars are already in operation on Norwegian roads.

Excellent goods from you, man. I’ve take note your stuff previous to and you’re just too fantastic. I actually like what you have acquired here, certainly like what you’re stating and the way by which you assert it. You make it entertaining and you still take care of to stay it wise.

Hi, Neat post. There is a problem with your web site in internet explorer, would test this… IE still is the market leader and a good portion of people will miss your magnificent writing due to this problem.
Thanks! We will check it. More information about fuel cell technology to come.
This site is mostly a walk-through for all of the information you wished about this and didn’t know who to ask. Glimpse right here, and you’ll definitely discover it.
Thanks, more information to come soon.
Great work! This is the type of information that should be shared around the internet. Shame on the search engines for not positioning this post higher! Come on over and visit my site . Thanks =)

How long has Asko been standing?
It started operation in autumn last year.
in 2021 can it replace lithium battery?
Why would they do that? What would power their heavy duty vehicles?
How Duty old used this energy?
Heavy duty hydrogen fuel cell vehicles are being used.
