Good morning, everyone, and welcome to Nel’s Second Quarter 2022 Results Presentation.
My name is Håkon Volldal, and I am the CEO of Nel.
With me today, I have our CFO, Kjell Christian Bjornsen; and Head of Investor Relations, Wilhelm Flinder.
The agenda for today is as follows.
We will briefly recap Nel.
the developments. highlights through on an go commercial the will second with quarter emphasis We
touch some and will off business. and We on we with We’ll impact events then have our a that Q&A a round summary will the session. section, of outlook it the political
potential hydrogen to and And decarbonization decided is produce, to join of global distribute renewables store the the reason Now dedicated is Nel. hydrogen Nel. unlock we Xst delivers company. that from is This of Nel company recap energy. have and mission a green optimal hydrogen. the global to purpose enable through joined attracted this renewable why to a technology July, me what solutions I and to I
are a there combination I emerging in have this. a say they purpose out be meaningful in industry And me. really this, would few to can leader companies as boldness speak that a to as what this is Nel’s think with there
If hydrogen the since company Exchange facts, Oslo Stock you listed XXXX. a pure-play and at on look some Nel

What that credit the can with Senate is for kilo hydrogen hydrogen means many a mean? positively tax in you So does regions in applications equal of gray Inflation is getting max That credit green projects. tax many Act The with competitive to $X become through get in produced. will U.S. the the passed and house, per hydrogen hydrogen Reduction this now involves that

And -- when of becoming the it get On direct funding it’s They projects. better not lot one We do the to experienced are the hydrogen backed push how it’s understand more They comes to but real drivers. only better market financing mean only guarantees, incentives. projects package not
balance is electrolyzers for it’s hydrogen equipment and financing We for that projects. So to for equipment see costs raise the other but also things down. for of easier plant coming
