Norway has plentiful hydropower, so electric cars do make sense there. They do have huge crude oil reserves, but do they have any refining capability?

- elygre 5y agoIt seems the answer is yes. There are two refineries. According to https://www.equinor.com/en/what-we-do/terminals-and-refineries.html https://www.equinor.com/en/what-we-do/terminals-and-refineri..., Mongstad (the larger of the two) has capacity: "Petrol (gasoline) production at Mongstad is 4 times Norwegian domestic consumption"
