The Norwegian subsidiary of the Implenia construction group, Implenia Norge AS, has signed a contract with Oslo-based TECO 2030 ASA for the development and testing of hydrogen-powered construction solutions. In doing so, Implenia is responding to the Norwegian government's goal of ensuring that all construction sites in the transport sector should be free of fossil fuels by 2025.
“Our fuel cells can be used for large ships and other heavy-duty applications,” explains TECO 2030 CEO Tore Enger in a press release from his company, “why not also drive devices on construction sites? We are very pleased that an industry leader like Implenia has decided to work with TECO 2030 to develop and test the fuel cells that are necessary to achieve the climate targets. "
“Our collaboration with TECO 2030 is an important part of our strategic plan and our corporate sustainability goal,” says Audun Aaland, CEO of Implenia Norge AS.
The agreement between the two companies extends for a period of five years. It comprises the three steps of project financing, product development, and commercialization and use. The first fuel cells are to be delivered in January 2023.
