Sarawak's Clean Energy Revolution: The Rise of Rembus H2 Hub
Key Ideas
- Sarawak's Rembus H2 Hub, including the Rembus Hydrogen Plant, aims to revolutionize public transport with hydrogen-powered vehicles by 2026.
- The project, led by SEDC Energy, will introduce hydrogen-powered Autonomous Rapid Transit (ART) vehicles and feeder buses to connect key areas in Kuching.
- Additionally, Sarawak is expanding Multifuel Stations (MFS) that offer conventional fuel, EV charging, and hydrogen refueling, marking a significant step towards cleaner energy options.
- Sarawak's involvement in global hydrogen projects like H2ornbill and H2biscus showcases the state's commitment to decarbonisation and its emerging leadership in the hydrogen market.
Sarawak is making significant strides towards cleaner public transport with the introduction of the Rembus H2 Hub, a project that includes the Rembus Hydrogen Plant set to be fully operational by 2026. The Deputy Minister of Energy and Environmental Sustainability highlighted that the plant will support the Kuching Urban Transport System (KUTS) by utilizing hydrogen-powered Autonomous Rapid Transit (ART) vehicles and feeder buses to connect major areas in Kuching. SEDC Energy (SEDCE) is spearheading this initiative, also expanding Multifuel Stations (MFS) under the PETROS brand to offer conventional fuel, EV charging, and hydrogen refueling. Furthermore, Sarawak is actively participating in global hydrogen projects like H2ornbill and H2biscus, which aim to export green hydrogen to Japan and supply South Korea's power grid, respectively. These endeavors not only demonstrate Sarawak's commitment to decarbonisation but also position the state as a key player in the hydrogen market, contributing to a more sustainable future.
