Valtor Offshore Transforms into Valtor Energy A/S – New Name, New Strategy, and a Strong Focus on Future Challenges in the Energy Industry

The name change reflects their ambition to deliver innovative and value-creating solutions across the energy industry while building on years of expertise in the offshore sector.

“With the new name, Valtor Energy A/S, we signal our dedication to address future challenges in the energy industry. We will continue to focus on our core business while developing sustainable solutions that meet the growing demands of the energy sector,” says Martin Schneider, CEO of Valtor Energy A/S.

As part of this strategic shift, Hardy Jeremiassen has joined as Head of Sales and Business Development. His extensive experience and industry knowledge are expected to drive the company’s ambitious growth plans.

“With an emphasis on larger and more complex projects, as well as sustainable solutions, we aim to achieve significant growth within a few years,” states Hardy Jeremiassen, Head of Sales and Business Development at Valtor Energy A/S.

The expanded cooperation will leverage Solydera’s advanced Solid Oxide Electrolysis technologies and Dynelectro’s expertise in industrial applications to develop innovative, efficient and scalable solutions to deliver cutting-edge solutions that support the production of green hydrogen and ammonia, essential components in the transition to a low-carbon economy.

As part of the Collaboration Agreement, SolydEra will serve as a solid oxide stack and technology provider to Dynelectro. A comprehensive framework will leverage the companies’ expertise, strengths and resources that will enable the partners to drive forward groundbreaking innovation and deliver exceptional solutions to their stakeholders.

“We are thrilled to solidify our partnership with Dynelectro,” says Alexander Liberov, CEO of SolydEra. “This agreement not only underscores our commitment to innovation but also paves the way for groundbreaking advancements. This co-creation is already seeing incredible results if we think that in less than one year a 1-MW dynamic electrolyser unit delivering up to 30 kg/hr of hydrogen will be delivered to the Danish company European Energy that will be producing green hydrogen by splitting water using the electricity generated in their wind farm.”

“This represents the culmination of four years of collaboration and shared innovation between our teams,” explains Sune Lilbæk, CEO of Dynelectro. “By combining our expertise in high-efficiency electrolysis with SolydEra’s robust stack technology, we are poised to deliver a scalable solution for affordable hydrogen, a critical feedstock in aviation, transportation and petro-chemical industries. This is a significant step forward in meeting the growing market demand for clean energy solutions across industries.”

About SolydEra

In day-to-day operations, the focus is often on daily tasks such as production, sales and finances, leaving little room to prioritize occupational health and safety. Tasks like completing the legally required workplace assessment (WEA) can be difficult to find time for. And who even has the latest knowledge about the applicable rules in this area?

"We completely understand why it can be difficult to prioritize occupational health and safety. It’s a task that typically isn’t part of daily operations, and in many workplaces, no one wants to take on the ‘Occupational Health and Safety’ hat,” says Frederik Stockholm Madsen, occupational health and safety advisor at ARBEJDSMILJØEksperten.

Coordinator, secretariat and expert in one solution

Just as bookkeeping or marketing can be handled by a part-time bookkeeper or freelancer, the legally required work on a company’s occupational health and safety can also be managed by an external specialist. The fact that it is a mandatory task—a must-do—makes this outsourcing model an attractive solution.

“When we take on a company’s occupational health and safety tasks, we serve as coordinator, secretariat and expert all in one. Essentially, all the company needs to do is attend the meetings they help schedule. There is no fixed format for how this is structured. An outsourcing agreement is tailored to the company’s needs and, of course, aligned with current legislation,” Frederik explains.

The daily grind can lead to blind spots

In addition to ensuring that mandatory tasks are handled, outsourcing agreements bring the added benefit of an external advisor’s fresh perspective. This allows them to identify safety issues that may have become part of the routine for management and employees.

“We all know how easy it is to overlook things, like poorly placed equipment, because they’ve become part of the everyday environment. No one questions them anymore. When I visit a company, I make it a priority to walk around and observe with fresh eyes. We discuss potential safety risks that we can address together. I don’t view it as testing the company, but as a collaborative effort to improve employee safety, which ultimately benefits the company’s bottom line,” Frederik concludes.

It is now well-established that an increasing number of Danes struggle with mental health issues. Unfortunately, mental disorders, stress, and poor social relationships are also becoming prevalent in the workplace, creating challenging conditions for many in their daily lives.
