Known as the Lolland Hydrogen Community, their vision is to be the European role model for community testing and implementation of full-scale hydrogen technology. The strategy is to use three phases to retrofit and redesign the infrastructure of the village of Vestenskov, an existing community on Lolland. Once complete, all the homes in the town will be supported solely by energy from hydrogen. In phase one, a demonstration facility for residential Fuel Cell Combined Heat and Power (CHP) was constructed in the town of Nakskov, another town on the island, and began operations officially in November 2006. Excess wind energy powers an electrolyser which separates hydrogen and oxygen molecules that make water (hence H2O).
