KUCHING, Feb 26: SEDC Energy Sdn Bhd (SEDCE) has signed a Heads of Agreement (HOA) with Gentari Sdn Bhd – through its subsidiary Gentari Hydrogen Sdn Bhd – for the joint development Sarawak H2 Hub in Bintulu.

The agreement will see the joint management of the centralised hydrogen production hub as the sole supplier of green hydrogen for downstream facilities in Bintulu, in addition to optimising all hydrogen production projects within the region.

“This strategic partnership between SEDCE and Gentari for the Sarawak H2 hub will be a significant undertaking as this will spur more developments and attract new investments especially in the new energy sector.

“Hydrogen will play a role in the energy transition and as highlighted in the National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR),
Sarawak’s role in advancing this
development is worthwhile to note. It resonates well with our approach to collaboration internationally and domestically,” added Robert Hardin, CEO, SEDCE.

Earlier, the document exchange was witnessed by the Premier of Sarawak, Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Abang Haji Openg at the Borneo Energy Transition Conference (BETC2024) here, today.

SEDCE has been tasked to kickstart the new energy ecosystem in Sarawak in line with the state government’s vision to transition to hydrogen economy and be a commercial hydrogen producer by 2027.

Meanwhile, Chief Hydrogen Officer at Gentari, Michèle Azalbert said the collaboration with SEDCE will create economic value for Sarawak while positioning the country as a hydrogen export hub.

“We believe that hydrogen is the way forward and we are committed to contributing towards Sarawak’s Hydrogen Economy Roadmap, in addition to the Malaysian government’s vision and objectives in the Hydrogen Economy and Technology Roadmap (HETR).

SEDC Energy and Gentari had previously entered into a Strategic Collaboration Agreement to explore potential collaborations in the development and provision of integrated clean energy solutions and contribution to policy and regulatory development in the state. -TVS
