Nordic Electrofuel offers a solution for the rapid transition from fossil to renewable electrical energy for all transport sectors. It is based on the conversion of renewable electric energy into liquid electro-fuels that can be as easily transported, stored, and used as conventional fossil hydrocarbons. It also provides a good solution to distribute and store stranded electrical energy. PTL (Power To Liquid) has been considered too expensive, but with the low electricity price in Norway and new efficient processing and upgrading solutions, it has become commercially feasible. Electrification of transportation is required to avoid catastrophic climate change. Battery- or cable-electric solutions are not feasible for transport like aviation and long-distance marine transport. Liquid energy carriers such as biofuels are desperately needed but limited. The fuel is free of sulfur and can therefore be used maritime industry as a fuel after 2022. The fuel emits much fewer particles and aromatics than conventional fossil fuel, so it also solves the local pollution problem. Competitive advantages: • Norway’s low electricity price from hydro and lately also wind power. • 20 - 30 % lower electricity consumption than with existing technology • Lower production price than advanced biofuels • Agreements in place for a site at Herøya, which has all utilities (cooling water, cheap renewable electricity, etc.) and processing expertise available. • About the same source to shaft efficiency as hydrogen, but with much lower total CAPEX due to no investment in distribution systems and engines.

Everything is interconnected making sure all data is gathered in one big backend, we apply machine learning to the data to make business recommendations on guest experience, staffing, etc. Quickorder is a fast-moving company where people with excellence strive. Key traits: We love these 5 key traits in our fellow colleagues: Curiosity, High work capacity, empathy, self-awareness and, Integrity In Quickorder we look at ourselves as a  pro sports team, and not a family. In a family, there is unconditional love but in a sports team you need to perform in order to be a part of the team if one guy or girl on the team falls through the whole team is in danger of doing so too. The Quickorder team: in the Quickorder team, all colleagues are extraordinary at what they do and excellent collaborators. The value and satisfaction of being a part of such a team are tremendous. Our vision of a great workplace doesn't consist of exclusive roundtable meetings with expensive catered food, gym facilities, fancy office spaces, or frequent parties with colleagues. Our version of the best workplace is a team where working towards and pursuing a common goal and vision creates real value. Therefore we decide to spend on that, instead of fancy dinners or crazy parties. We believe it is on such a team that you learn the most, perform the best, improves the fastest, and have the most fun.  At Quickorder collaboration and trust is thriving and are an essential part of the team. There is no room for " brilliant jerks" the cost to the teamwork is simply too high. succeeding as a part of Quickorder requires being effective, not working hard. A, B performances with tons of work put into it make for a mediocre result whereas a truly excellent performance doesn't need a ton of work in order to make a great impact.  Freedom and responsibility: Our goal is to inspire people, more than to manage them. We believe that great performers that are part of a team know the better solution, and therefore it's not the managers' duty to tell how things should be done, but merely to set the context so that the employee can find the best possible solution. We trust in freedom, and constantly tries to take new actions in order to improve the amount of freedom our employees possess, some examples of what we do are: Employees got an unlimited amount of vacation (only 6 paid weeks) Our policy vacation is " take vacation, and use ALL of your 6 weeks) Employees get tailored work hours that fit their work/life balance Our policy for spending, travel, and other costs is very simple: "Only spend like you would your self, and always spend in Quickorders best interest"
