Hydrogen highway opens in Norway

Norway opened a 560-kilometre hydrogen highway last week with more than a dozen hydrogen-powered cars rallying along a scenic route between its capital city Oslo and North Sea oil hub Stavanger.

Norwegian oil and gas producer StatoilHydro has built several hydrogen filling stations between the two cities to cater to cars with fuel cells that generate electricity from a chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen or by burning hydrogen in a combustion engine similar to those in gas-powered cars.
