DANBURY, Conn. and KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, March 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FuelCell Energy, Inc. (Nasdaq: FCEL) and Malaysia Marine and Heavy Engineering Sdn Bhd (MMHE), a wholly owned subsidiary of Malaysia Marine and Heavy Engineering Holdings Berhad (KLSE: MHB), have announced the signing of a Joint Development Agreement (JDA) to co-develop large-scale hydrogen production systems and technologies across Asia, New Zealand, and Australia. Building on a memorandum of understanding signed in February 2023, the JDA represents a pivotal step for the two companies, driven by a shared vision to make clean hydrogen production easily accessible and viable. The collaboration underscores FuelCell Energy and MHB’s commitment to advancing green energy solutions and supporting global decarbonization and energy transition goals. Under the terms of the JDA, the two companies will bring together FuelCell Energy’s cutting-edge solid oxide electrolyzer (SOEC) technology and MHB’s expertise in large-scale fabrication to develop modular solutions that support rapid deployment of commercial hydrogen production. Project Award: Detailed Feasibility Study (DFS) in Malaysia In conjunction with the JDA, FuelCell Energy and MHB are collaborating to support a contract awarded to FuelCell Energy for a Detailed Feasibility Study (DFS) of a low-carbon fuel production facility in Malaysia. The DFS will evaluate the production of low-carbon fuel utilizing SOEC technology with carbon dioxide and water as feedstocks. Additionally, as part of the DFS, the companies will collaborate with KBR LLC, which will provide its proprietary low-carbon fuel synthesis technology. The project aligns with Malaysia’s goals to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, while advancing its national hydrogen value chain.
