New sources of energy and methods of production like Shale and Hydraulic fracturing (commonly known as fracking) may substitute oil and gas. Renewable Energy also poses a large risk to reducing fossil fuel production and deployment of new technologies. is a large energy producer, and one of the world's largest exporters of oil.Most of the electricity in the country is produced by hydroelectricity.Norway is one of the leading countries in the electrification of its. Fossil fuelsIn 2011,was the eighth largestexporter in the world (at 78 Mt), and the 9th largest exporter of refined oil (at 86 Mt). It was also the world's third largest(at 99 bcm), having significant gas. Despite producing the majority of its electricity from hydroelectric plants, Norway is ranked 30th in the 2008and 37th in the 2004 list of countries by ratio of GDP to carbon dioxide emissions.

What is energy transition Norway?
Energy Transition Norway is Norway's only energy cluster that encompasses the entire sector's value chain. We bring world-leading technologies and competence together to accelerate the energy transition.
Why is Norway an energy-rich country?
As an energy-rich country, Norway is in a unique starting position with respect to the energy transition. An abundance of affordable hydropower has enabled the development of energy-intensive industries and a high level of electrification of homes and businesses with limited GHG emissions.
Why is Norway a major energy producer and exporter?
At the same time, as a major oil and gas producer and exporter, Norway will need to support an evolution of its energy sector amid a global energy transition. Thanks to its ample reserves of oil and natural gas, Norway is a net energy exporter: in 2020, 87% of its energy production was exported.
Can Norway achieve a successful energy and climate transition?
The report notes that Norway’s existing energy sector expertise can help it achieve a successful energy and climate transition. If the right policies are put in place, Norway is well placed to decarbonise a wide range of sectors through technologies such as electric vehicles, hydrogen, and carbon capture, utilisation and storage.
What type of energy does Norway produce?
Norway is a large energy producer, and one of the world's largest exporters of oil. Most of the electricity in the country is produced by hydroelectricity.
Why should Norway invest in hydropower?
An abundance of affordable hydropower has enabled the development of energy-intensive industries and a high level of electrification of homes and businesses with limited GHG emissions. At the same time, as a major oil and gas producer and exporter, Norway will need to support an evolution of its energy sector amid a global energy transition.
