Abstract

This paper discusses regional development for zero emission transport in the Oslo region, and shows why this region today has the highest density of electric vehicles in the world, and why the number of electric cars is growing exponentially. It further explains why the region is particularly well suited for the early introduction of fuel cell electric vehicles. A joint strategy for hydrogen-based transport is presented, with the aim of getting 10,000 fuel cell cars on the road by 2025. Cooperation with Oslo Airport (OSL) with its 2020 goal for fossil-free transport is considered as important for the realisation of the strategy. A concept study recommends early hydrogen introduction at the airport, both airside and landside. OSL acquired a fuel cell car in 2014 and, in partnership with Akershus County Council, will this summer help set up a hydrogen refuelling station close to the airport.
