In support of Norway’s ambitious goal to become a low-emission society by 2050, Eurotainer, a global leader in tank container leasing, has partnered with Hexagon Purus, a world leading provider of zero-emission infrastructure and mobility solutions, to launch Type 4 H₂ storage solutions. This marks the first time these advanced H₂ storage systems will be available for leasing to industrial customers in Norway, including Norwegian Hydrogen.

Hexagon Purus will provide 380-bar H₂ distribution systems, designed for the safe and efficient transportation of green H₂. These systems will be available through Eurotainer’s leasing network to support H₂ transport for mobility and industrial applications across Norway and beyond, playing a key role in advancing the country’s H₂ economy.

Among Eurotainer's customers is Norwegian Hydrogen, already producing green H₂ at its recently opened Hellesylt H₂ Hub, and with additional production facilities in development across the Nordics. The H₂ produced will be distributed to a group of industrial customers, including construction company Veidekke which will use the green H₂ to significantly reduce emissions on two of their asphalt production plants in the region. Some of the H₂ will also be utilized by Vireon, a subsidiary of Norwegian Hydrogen, which aims to become the leading operator of H₂ refueling stations for heavy transport in the Nordic region.

The new H₂ storage systems, manufactured at Hexagon Purus’ facility in Weeze, Germany, will be delivered by the end of the year. This collaboration will further expand the distribution of green H₂, a key element in Norway’s transition to a sustainable, low-emission future.

“We see immense potential in Norway and in broader European markets as H₂ emerges as a critical solution for decarbonizing mobility and industry. We’re delighted to now be able to offer a new H₂ storage product to our customers that will enable them to decarbonize their operations,” said Nicolas Rougeron, General Manager Europe, Eurotainer. “After evaluating several Type 4 H₂ storage providers, we selected Hexagon Purus for their proven track record and the exceptional quality of their products. We’re excited to have them as a reliable partner.”

Morten Holum, CEO, Hexagon Purus, said, “Our H₂ distribution modules offer the highest transport capacity at the lowest total cost of ownership, enabling efficient delivery of H₂ from production facilities to industrial customers and refueling stations. We are excited to support Eurotainer in making H₂ more accessible for industrial and mobility applications.”
