BotH₂nia Field Tour Oulu @ Nordic Hydrogen Week
Come and see where Oulu’s new hydrogen industry is growing. So far, six companies have announced plans to build facilities for the production of hydrogen and hydrogen derivatives in Oulu. The industry will be located in green industrial areas. During the tour, we will visit the Oulu City Center Industrial Park and the Oulu Port Industrial Park, where space has been reserved for the production of hydrogen and hydrogen derivatives for projects by Verso Energy, Hy2Gen, Oulun Energia, and P2X Solutions. We will learn about the industry and infrastructure already in place in the area and hear more about future plans.
The tour is organised by the BotH₂nia Association and the BotH₂nia Hydrogen Valley, a hydrogen valley encompassing the NUTS3 regions of Southwest Finland, Satakunta, Pirkanmaa, Ostrobothnia, Central Ostrobothnia, North Ostrobothnia, and Sea Lapland. The BotH₂nia Association is building a hydrogen economy that encompasses the entire BotH₂nia Hydrogen Valley, consisting of the hydrogen industry, its subcontractors, research and educational institutions, and other actors.
