Hydrogen

The HYway project contributes to the understanding of the climate and environmental risks and co-benefits of a hydrogen economy and aims to advise policymakers and industry on options for addressing those risks.

Norway’s climate target to halve greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and become a low-emissions society by 2050, will require significantly stronger climate and energy policies. In NOREGRET, social and energy scientists are studying how such a transition can be carried out.

Hydrogen is often considered a green energy carrier that has the potential to replace oil, but little is known about its environmental and climate impacts. Over the next three years, CICERO will therefore study what these impacts are.
