Norway, S. Korea team up on green vehicles


(MENAFN) Norway has called for collaboration with South Korea to build hydrogen-powered cars as the two nations are pushing to go green by slashing carbon emissions and switching to renewable energy sources.

Both sides agreed that complementary expertise in the energy, maritime and oil and gas industries creates ample opportunity for South Korean and Norwegian businesses to contribute to a green transition.

A great example of the Norwegian"South Korean energy cooperation can be found in the transport sector, as both are racing to develop hydrogen fuel cell cars as they do not produce greenhouse gases.

In particular, Hyundai Motor Co., South Korea's largest automaker and the world's fifth biggest, has become the first automobile manufacturer in the world to mass produce a hydrogen-powered car.

On the other hand, Norway is also prepared to ban the sale of new diesel and gasoline vehicles, beginning 2025 as part of its extensive efforts and hard work to move toward a new and greener economy.
