H2 Energy Sdn Bhd – First Solar Powered Hydrogen System for Rural Electrification (Malaysia)

H2 Energy Sdn Bhd installed a 2.88 kWp solar-powered hydrogen system at the Long Loyang Clinic in Sarawak, Malaysia, on 8 August 2022. The system provides 24/7 power for essential medical services, replacing an unreliable diesel supply, and is estimated to avoid 6 tonnes of CO2 annually. H2 Energy is now scaling this technology for other rural clinics and settlements in Malaysia, as well as projects in Australia and Cambodia.

• On 8 August 2022, H2 Energy Sdn Bhd installed a 2.88 kWp solar-powered hydrogen sustainable and circular power generation system at the Long Loyang Clinic in Sarawak. The system provides 24/7 electricity to replace a diesel-based supply that was costly, irregular, and often unavailable during rainy seasons or due to generator failure. The clinic's average daily energy demand is 25-30 kW, used for lighting, refrigeration of medicines and vaccines, and medical equipment such as defibrillators.
• The project is estimated to indirectly benefit 2,172 people and reduce annual CO2 emissions by 6 tonnes compared to full diesel power, which is equivalent to planting 218 trees.
• H2 Energy Sdn Bhd, which currently owns and finances the project, is exploring the application of its scalable technology for other rural settings, including schools and settlements. The company is in advanced stages of implementing similar projects for rural clinics and settlements in Malaysia, mining accommodations and settlements in Australia, and police and army security camps in Cambodia. H2 Energy estimates that commissioning a similar project from inception takes no more than five months.
