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 on 8 August 2022. The system provides 24/7 electricity for essential medical equipment and refrigeration, replacing a costly and irregular diesel-based supply. The project is estimated to benefit 2,172 people indirectly and avoid 6 tonnes of CO2 annually. H2 Energy is exploring further scalable applications for rural clinics, schools, and settlements in Malaysia, Australia, and Cambodia.

• The Long Loyang Clinic, which serves the Long Loyang village and 15 remote settlements, transitioned from a diesel-based power supply—characterized by irregular delivery and limited operating hours—to a 2.88 kWp solar-powered hydrogen system launched on 8 August 2022. This new system provides 24/7 electricity for a daily energy demand of 25-30 kW, supporting lighting, refrigeration for vaccines and medicines, and medical equipment like defibrillators.
• The project is estimated to indirectly benefit 2,172 people and reduce annual CO2 emissions by 6 tonnes, which is equivalent to planting 218 trees, compared to a full diesel power setup.
• H2 Energy intends to scale this technology for other rural settings, including schools and clinics in Sarawak and Malaysia, as well as mining accommodations in Australia and security camps in Cambodia, with an estimated commissioning time of no more than five months from inception.
