Vireon is an independent company, separating from Norwegian Hydrogen and continuing to accelerate the development of a Nordic hydrogen refueling infrastructure. 

A new chapter for Vireon
“This is an exciting new chapter for Vireon. Independence allows us to be even more agile and focused on our mission to develop and expand hydrogen refueling infrastructure and enable zero emission mobility,” says Per Øyvind Voie, CEO at Vireon. 

A strategic move
With this move, Vireon will operate independently while maintaining collaboration with Norwegian Hydrogen where beneficial. And while Norwegian Hydrogen as a company will no longer be a shareholder in Vireon, the owners behind Norwegian Hydrogen will. 

Vireon will fully leverage its potential, engage in new partnerships across the entire value chain and contribute to the development of a sustainable hydrogen economy.  

Stronger focus for both companies
“Our downstream refueling activities have been developed under our wings for 5 years now, and Vireon is now in a situation where they can spread their own wings and fly. With Vireon now standing on its own, both companies can pursue our respective growth strategies while collaborating where it makes sense. Vireon can now collaborate more independently with other players in the industry, including our competitors. We are excited about what the future holds for Vireon as an independent company,” says CEO of Norwegian Hydrogen, Jens Berge. 

Unique position
Over the past few years, Vireon has claimed a unique position as the leading hydrogen refueling company for heavy-duty vehicles in the Nordics. The company has successfully developed numerous projects, secured over 25 million Euros in grants, established strong customer agreements and built many valuable partnerships. Vireon is poised to strengthen its position as a leading player in the hydrogen refueling industry going forward. 

Open to new partnerships
As a stand-alone company it is now natural for Vireon to seek new partnerships. 
“As a stand-alone company, we are actively engaging with potential partners across the value chain,” says Voie. “We remain committed to driving hydrogen refueling forward and welcome like-minded partners to join us on this journey.”
