To achieve this, <span class=\"xn-money\">one billion kroner<\/span> has been allocated in the NTP. The first major initiative is the establishment of Norway as an international test arena for zero- and low-emission aircraft&#8221;, says Minister of Transport Jon-Ivar Nyg\u00e5rd.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;With an aviation industry committed to reducing emissions, a <span>decentralized<\/span> network of airports of various sizes, a significant regional air transport market, a proactive aviation authority, and a supplier industry specializing in battery-electric propulsion systems and hydrogen technology, we have a strong foundation for the early adoption of new technologies,&#8221; says the Minister of Transport.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>Broad Involvement<\/b>\n      <\/p>\n<p>The goal of the test arena is to gain knowledge, learning, and to prepare the ecosystem and set the foundation for scaling. This means involving airlines, manufacturers, supplier industries, the energy sector, and other stakeholders.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Avinor&#8217;s role is to facilitate the infrastructure at airports and make the airspace available for actors who wish to test various zero- and low-emission aircraft in an operational environment. We seek more knowledge about what different technologies and aircraft require in terms of airport facilities and necessary energy supply needs. For example, we currently have a procurement process underway for fast chargers for electric aircraft in <span class=\"xn-location\">Bergen<\/span> and Stavanger to accommodate the first test flight,&#8221; says <span class=\"xn-person\">Karianne Helland Strand<\/span>, Executive Vice President for Sustainability, Concept, and Infrastructure Development at Avinor.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Aviation is a safe mode of transport and a well-regulated sector.
