French hydrogen fund Hy24 and its Danish partner Everfuel announced Tuesday a total investment of €200 million to create a joint venture that will finance infrastructure in Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Finland.

Investment Details

According to a joint statement issued by the companies, the joint venture will be 51% owned by Everfuel, while Hy24 will hold 49%.
