Harnessing the hydrogen moment

MALAYSIA is positioned to play a significant role in the emerging hydrogen economy and is on the verge of a game-changing opportunity in the global energy market. But industry players in Malaysia must act decisively and collaboratively now, or risk missing the boat as other countries surge ahead.

Malaysia, with its abundant natural resources and strategic geographic position, has the potential to be a major supplier of hydrogen to energy-hungry nations such as Japan, Singapore, and South Korea. According to Malaysia’s Hydrogen Economy & Technology Roadmap (HETR), hydrogen will play a critical role in industrial heat, mobility, power generation, and marine applications, promising vast economic and environmental benefits.
