TIME AND VENUE: 30th - 31st of October 2013
> Akershus County Council at Galleri Oslo
and Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel - Oslo, Norway
Welcome to Akershus in the Oslo region,
a world leading region in green mobility.
Akershus County Council, in partnership with HyER
(Hydrogen, Fuel cells and Electro-mobility in European
Regions), are pleased to invite you to the conference
“Regional Power for Clean Transport”. Europe is currently
94 % dependent on oil based fuels, and the need for a joint
initiative to implement alternative fuel solutions is urgent. As a
consequence, the EU package “Clean Power for Transport:
Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel, Oslo, Norway
and The Norwegian National Opera & Ballet
A European alternative fuels strategy” is currently under
consideration in the European Parliament.

The conference focuses on the interaction of politics, research
and industry - and regional perspectives to accelerate clean
power for transport. There will be particular emphasis on
biofuels, electro-mobility/batteries and hydrogen as energy
carriers.
TARGET AUDIENCE: Politicians, industry, R&D, public administration and other
stakeholders in the transport and energy sector.

THE SMALL TOWN ASKER
Asker is a small town in the Oslo
metropolitan area, with a substantial
number of people commuting to the
capital city center daily. As a result of
political incentives, such as access
to restricted bus lanes to avoid rush
hour queues, exemption from road
tolls, as well as free parking, there are
now 1200 electric cars in Asker, which
account for 4 percent of all cars in the
municipality.

Hynor Lillestrøm - making
hydrogen green
Hynor Lillestrøm is both a hydrogen
technology test center and one of the
most advanced refueling stations in the
world, located just north of Oslo. At
the station hydrogen is produced from
landfill gas, hydro power and local solar
power. The test center facilitates R&D
projects of international importance,
both on hydrogen production,
compression and second generation
carbon capture technologies. Hynor
Lillestrøm is the result of a broad
collaboration where ambitious local and
regional authorities play a crucial role
for its success.

Esval Miljøpark (Environmental
park) Romerike Biogas plant
The Waste-to-Energy Agency’s (EGE)
biogas plant at Romerike processes
food waste from the Oslo region. At the
innovatively designed plant the waste
is utilized to produce liquid biogas
(LBG) and bio fertilizer. The liquid
biogas fuels city busses and waste
collection vehicles, and the bio fertilizer
is used for agricultural purposes. This
creates a closed loop, where waste
resources are exploited in the best
manner possible. The production
started January this year with the
capacity to fuel 135 buses and fertilize
100 medium-sized local farms. In 2012
EGE, and its industrial partner Cambi,
won a National Innovation Award
for the design of the plant and the
cooperation between public sector and
industry.
