Logan Energy is set to accelerate the deployment of hydrogen (H₂) infrastructure in Sarawak, following the signing of a landmark Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Malaysian company H2 Energy Sdn Bhd last week.

After identifying the crucial role H₂ will play in Sarawak’s Post COVID-19 Development Strategy 2030 (PCDS 2030), the Malaysian state looked to Scotland to find technology partners to help deliver its vision.

The MoU between Logan Energy and H2 Energy was signed during International Energy Week (IEW) 2025 in Kuching, Sarawak, in the presence of 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, and Datuk Dr Hazland.

In June 2025, Sarawak Deputy Energy and Environmental Sustainability Minister Datuk Hazland Abang Hipni told the Energy Exports Conference (EEC) 2025 in Aberdeen that the state was ready to become a leader in ASEAN’s energy transition. During his visit, Datuk Dr Hazland met with a number of Scottish companies already playing key roles in global decarbonization, including Edinburgh-based Logan Energy.

This strategic partnership marks a significant step towards accelerating the development and deployment of H₂ solutions in Sarawak. By combining Logan Energy’s extensive H₂ experience and expertise with H2 Energy’s local knowledge and operational capabilities, the two organizations are uniquely positioned to deliver H₂ infrastructure projects in the region.

One such project is the Kuching Urban Transport System (KUTS), which will provide the 700,000 residents of Greater Kuching with a H₂-powered public transportation network.

H2 Energy has already delivered a H₂ energy system at Long Loyang Clinic, which is powering critical services for over 2,000 residents in the rural, off-grid village. Logan Energy will support scaling the technology, potentially impacting tens of thousands of people living in rural communities across Sarawak.

About the partnership’s potential, Sandra Liz Hon, Executive Director of H2 Energy Sdn Bhd, said: “This collaboration supports Sarawak’s ambition to lead ASEAN’s hydrogen economy while creating skilled jobs and delivering sustainable growth for local communities.”

Logan Energy is a designer, supplier and integrator of complete H₂ production, refueling, compression, storage, dispensing and fuel cell solutions. The company has recently developed an innovative way of integrating systems to deliver flexibility, optimization and cost savings—while enhancing performance, reliability and ease of use. H₂ refueling stations in Scotland and the Czech Republic will be the first to benefit from these innovations when they are commissioned later this year.

 

“The success of a hydrogen infrastructure project isn’t measured the day it’s switched on,” said Craig Stewart, Business Development Director at Logan Energy. “It’s measured by its long-term reliability, efficiency and low maintenance costs. Achieving that requires local skills, and building that capability will be a key focus of our collaboration with H2 Energy.”
