About Vätgas Sweden
Vätgas Sweden started as a national organization on January 1, 2007 with the aim of functioning as an initiator, coordinator and spreader of knowledge. The business is conducted in the form of a non-profit, politically unbound industry and membership organization. Our view of hydrogen’s role as an energy carrier is balanced and long-term. On behalf of our roughly 120 members, we work to promote the role of hydrogen gas in Sweden and spread knowledge.
We are a committed and experienced organizer who spreads knowledge in various channels such as lectures, events, conferences and digital channels. We have extensive experience in running both national and international hydrogen projects with the aim of developing business models for part or the entire hydrogen value chain.
We have an exciting, diversified and active network with partners from the business world, authorities and academia both globally and nationally.
