Senoko Energy and Petronas’ Gentari ink MOU to explore importing hydrogen gas from Malaysia to Singapore
The Singapore energy company plans to integrate hydrogen gas into its combined cycle gas turbine assets to improve their environmental performance
SENOKO Energy signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Gentari, the renewable energy arm of Malaysia’s Petronas, to explore sustainable energy solutions in Singapore using hydrogen gas.
Both companies will explore the feasibility of importing hydrogen gas from Malaysia to Singapore through this collaboration, said Senoko on Wednesday (Oct 23).
The energy company added that there are plans to integrate hydrogen gas into its existing and new combined cycle gas turbine assets to improve their efficiency and environmental performance.
The first phase of the collaboration will aim to explore reducing carbon emissions by 18,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (tco2e) annually, which is equivalent to the effect of taking about 4,000 cars off the roads, said Senoko.
Subsequent phases could see this number potentially being scaled up to 535,000 tco2e, which is similar to taking about 119,000 cars off the road.
Gentari will supply the hydrogen gas through a 20-year supply agreement which is expected to commence by 2029.
