What kind of partners are you looking for?

Arctic Cluster Team (ACT) is an industrial cluster based in Northern Norway with more than 100 partners. Within our Hydrogen Working Group, we have hydrogen producers, offtakers (including process industries, logistics, and others), as well as some infrastructure players. We are looking to match with other clusters, companies, or research organizations that can help fill gaps in the hydrogen value chain within our cluster. We are also keen to connect with potential project partners, including securing EU funding opportunities such as the Hydrogen Valley Call.
