I never knew that Norway had become an island. The last I heard it was still solidly attached to the Eurasian continent. Also, considering their high latitude with its very short winter days, they would have to have a lot of hydrogen storage capacity to carry the surplus generated during the long days of summer to supply the hydrogen demand through the winter. With their low sun angles from their high latitude and their abundant hydropower, I'm surprised the Norwegians would even be considering solar.
