In order to enable hydrogen transports between Norway and Germany, Gassco AS (Gassco) and GASCADE Gastransport GmbH (GASCADE) signed a memorandum of understanding with the aim to transport hydrogen via pipeline in the North Sea. The cooperation between the two network operators is embedded in a strategic partnership to find infrastructure solutions between Norway and Germany.
On the Norwegian side, Gassco will have an active role in the further development of a potential hydrogen infrastructure from Norway to Germany. On the German side, GASCADE is developing the offshore hydrogen pipeline AquaDuctus in the North Sea for interconnecting adjacent offshore pipelines and providing the downstream connection to Germany. The aim of the planned cooperation is to ensure an efficient and coherent planning of the Norwegian and German projects.
