Sembcorp Industries, based in Singapore, has partnered with PT PLN Energi Primer Indonesia to develop a green hydrogen production facility in Sumatra, Indonesia. The project, poised to be the largest green hydrogen initiative in Southeast Asia, is set to produce 100,000 metric tons of green hydrogen annually. The joint development agreement was signed at the Singapore International Energy Week 2024, following a year of feasibility studies focusing on site selection, risk assessments, and technical development. This initiative not only aims to establish a significant green hydrogen hub connecting Sumatra, the Riau Islands, and Singapore but also reflects a shared vision for a sustainable energy future in the region. The project aligns with the sustainability goals of both Singapore and Indonesia, emphasizing collaboration and innovation in the pursuit of clean energy solutions. Despite the scale and ambition of the project, the signing of the agreement is not anticipated to have a substantial financial impact on Sembcorp for the current fiscal year. This landmark agreement marks a significant milestone in the advancement of green hydrogen technology in Southeast Asia and highlights the growing importance of sustainable energy initiatives in the region.
