NL Hydrogen and Hydrogen Denmark have signed a Memorandum of Understanding. The aim of the cooperation is to tighten the bonds between the organisation and thereby increase hydrogen collaboration between the Danish and Dutch hydrogen sectors.
It is with great pleasure that the two national hydrogen associations, NL Hydrogen and Hydrogen Denmark, have agreed to strengthen their bilateral cooperation with the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).
The MoU was signed during the working visit of H.M. King Willem Alexander, King of the Netherlands, to Denmark. The visit had the aim to expand cooperation between the Netherlands and Denmark in the realm of hydrogen and regional hydrogen infrastructure and thus provided the perfect backdrop to formalise the cooperation between the two national hydrogen associations.
H.M. Willem Alexander was joined by H.M. Frederik X of Denmark when the MoU was signed. It was therefore under the watchful eye of two kings that chairman of the board representing NL Hydrogen, Marcel Galjee, and CEO of Hydrogen Denmark, Tejs Laustsen Jensen, signed the MoU.
We are very pleased to have signed this Memorandum of Understanding with Hydrogen Denmark. Collaboration is crucial to advancing hydrogen initiatives, especially within Europe. In the Netherlands, we are already working diligently across all fronts of the hydrogen value chain, from hydrogen production to end use. Through this partnership, we look forward to taking further steps together to reduce carbon emissions in our countries,” says Marcel Galjee, Chairman of NLHydrogen.
“We are very happy to have signed this MoU with our colleagues in the Netherlands. Our two countries are working systematically towards decarbonising our societies and we see very similar needs for hydrogen as a path to reach net-zero economies. We look forward to strengthening the bonds and stimulate cooperation between Denmark and the Netherlands, focussing on hydrogen infrastructure and the hard to abate sectors, such as green shipping,” says Hydrogen Denmark’s CEO, Tejs Laustsen Jensen.
