Norway's super secret masterplan(?):

1. Lead electric vehicle revolution, increasing demand for renewable energy in Europe

2. Sell abundant, clean hydro-electricity to Denmark, Germany, and the UK via new HVDC interconnectors

3. $$ Profit $$

I have my tin hat on so here's an upvote!

Norway has a huge and profitable IT industry.
