Project Data:
Capacity: 30,000 tons p.a.
Location: Fredrikstad, Norway
Partners: Vow ASA, Viken Park, Carbon Centric, and other stakeholders within the industrial park project
EU Consortium partners: Arbion Industries AS and Arbion Industries Group AS
EU Project name: Viken Industrial Pyrolysis for Emissions Reduction - VIPER (project no. 101252030)

The Viken Park biocarbon production facility is located at Viken Park in Fredrikstad Eastern Norway, a green-field industrial park. The energy produced from pyrolysis gas at Arbion Industries’ production facility will become the backbone of the energy generation on-site. High-value energy will be sold to a district heating company, and low-value heat will be consumed by Arbion Industries. This large-scale project will supply the Viken Park area with bioenergy while producing biocarbon and bio-oil for industrial use, making it a key project in ensuring zero-emissions industries in the area. As an important step to mature the project, Arbion Industries has entered several strategic partnerships for feedstock, CCU and energy offtake for the large-scale production facility.

Arbion Industries was recently awarded EUR 26.2 million from the EU Innovation Fund to establish the projects, as one of five Norwegian projects awarded funding in 2025.
