Scotland, Singapore sign MoU on hydrogen

The Scottish Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Association (SHFCA) and the Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Association of Singapore (HFCAS) have signed an MoU to promote mutually beneficial hydrogen and fuel cell technology and industry exchange and development, Scottish Enterprise said on February 17.

As part of the partnership, efforts will be made to develop joint hydrogen and fuel cell technology commercial projects in Scotland and Singapore.

HFCAS supports the push for hydrogen and fuel cell development and deployment in Singapore. Since its formation in 2019, HFCAS has promoted the use of hydrogen and fuel cells to help in Singapore’s decarbonisation efforts and move towards a greener energy mix for power generation, mobility and industrial applications.

Established in 2004, SHFCA promotes and develops expertise in fuel cells and hydrogen technologies.

SHFCA has more than 180 members from across the industry, academia and the public sector, reflecting the increasing role of hydrogen and fuel cell technologies to enable the deployment of renewables and low carbon technologies in the net zero energy system.

Both organisation will work to identify and overcome common technology barriers to the production, distribution, storage and use of hydrogen.
