KUCHING (July 16): A strategic partnership between Logan Energy Ltd (Scotland) and H2 Energy Sdn Bhd (Malaysia) is set to accelerate the development of green hydrogen infrastructure in Sarawak, following the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on Tuesday.
The collaboration is seen as a key step towards realising Sarawak’s Post covid-19 Development Strategy (PCDS) 2030, particularly in establishing the state as a regional leader in low-carbon energy and hydrogen technology.
According to the press release, the partnership will focus on green hydrogen production, rural electrification, hydrogen mobility, and industrial decarbonisation.
Both parties will also explore technology transfer, feasibility for local manufacturing, policy engagement, and ESG-driven investment opportunities.
The MoU was signed during International Energy Week (IEW) 2025 here and builds on the groundwork laid during Deputy Minister for Energy and Environmental Sustainability Datuk Dr Hazland Abang Hipni’s official visit to Aberdeen, Scotland in early June.
Sarawak Premier Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg, Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof, Deputy Premier Datuk Amar Dr Sim Kui Hian, Dr Hazland, IEW 2025 organising chairman Tan Sri Abdul Rahman Rahmat and other distinguished guests were also present to witness the signing.
The visit, arranged through the good offices of Scottish Development International (SDI), strengthened ties between Sarawak and Scotland’s renewable energy sector and facilitated connections with Logan Energy.
By combining Logan Energy’s technical expertise with H2 Energy’s local knowledge, the collaboration aims to position Sarawak as a leader in Asean’s hydrogen economy.
H2 Energy director Sandra Liz Hon Ai Ling said the collaboration reflects Sarawak’s bold vision for a clean energy transition.
“This collaboration supports Sarawak’s ambition to lead Asean’s hydrogen economy while creating skilled jobs and delivering sustainable growth for local communities,” she said.
Logan Energy Ltd Business Development Director Craig Stewart echoed the sentiment, noting the significance of the agreement.
“By combining Logan Energy’s extensive hydrogen experience and expertise with H2 Energy’s deep local knowledge and operational capability, we are uniquely positioned to support Sarawak’s ambitious hydrogen goals.
“We are excited to play a role in the region’s energy transition and contribute to building a sustainable hydrogen economy in Sarawak,” he said.
Pilot projects will prioritise benefits for Sarawak’s rural communities, public transport system, and key industrial sectors.
The signing underscores growing UK-Malaysia cooperation in clean energy, with Logan Energy also commending SDI’s role in bridging connections between the two countries.
