About H2Malaysia

A national platform, industry-led.

Hydrogen Malaysia (H2Malaysia) is the national, industry-led platform established to drive the growth, coordination and adoption of hydrogen technologies in support of Malaysia's Hydrogen Economy & Technology Roadmap 2022–2050 — underpinned by the “Build Some, Buy Some” model, the clean energy transition and green economy goals.

The Role

The central facilitator.

H2Malaysia connects government agencies, industry players, research institutions and investors to develop a robust hydrogen ecosystem. It actively supports national hydrogen initiatives such as the Sarawak Hydrogen Hub, the H2B Project and the Hydrogen Economy Technology R&D Implementation Programme (HETR-IP) led by NanoMalaysia Berhad.

Through strategic partnerships with international organisations such as the Global Hydrogen Industrial Association Alliance (GHIAA), H2Malaysia aligns Malaysia's hydrogen development with global targets, standards and best practices — positioning the nation as a regional hydrogen hub.
