Glencore’s second electrolyser from Nel

In this video, Nils G. Gjelsten CEO at Nikkelverk, discusses Nel’s technology, as well as the ways in which nickel is always present in our everyday lives.

Hydrogen, produced by Nel’s electrolyser at the facility, is not only used in the refining and production of nickel but also has wider applications, such as in the production of hydrochloric acid, a process that has been integral to the facility’s operations.

From the cutlery we use to the mobile phones and laptops that keep us connected, nickel is always present, yet often overlooked. Since its inception in 1910, the Nikkelverk facility has not only supported the local community but has also played an important role in global industries.
