fact sheet · eNergy storagePioneering fuel cellsand hydrogenThere are ample opportunities for foreign companies to becomepart of the established networks, a vigilant R&D environmentor to join the growing number of emerging companiesand suppliers, all of whom are at the forefront of fuelcell technology.Emerging MarketFuel cells and hydrogen technologies are well representedin Greater Copenhagen. This is an advantage when enteringthe Danish market as there is already an emergingmarket for commercial products. Danish industry and universitiesare engaged in developing fuel cell technologies,from fundamental research, component development andmanufacturing, to systems integration. There are numerousresearch programmes in place and a number of demonstrationprojects which focus on the development ofnew technology, components and systems for fuel cellusage. Foreign companies have opportunities for creatingbusiness partnerships throughout the entire value chain.Flagship company: Haldor TopsøeHaldor Topsøe is a world leading fuel cell company. In2007, the company began its commercialization ofthe next generation of fuel cells, also known as solidoxide fuel cells (SOFC’s), which produce electricity directlyfrom oxidizing a fuel. Haldor Topsøe is aboutto open a commercial-scale factory north of Copenhagenfor the production of SOFC’s. These have awide variety of applications from auxiliary power unitsin vehicles to stationary power generation.www.topsoe.comFlagship project:Hydrogen Community LollandThe Hydrogen Community Lolland is a Europeanleader in full-scale implementation of hydrogen andfuel cell technology.
