INNEOVA advances Hydrogen Pathfinder Pilot

This agreement builds on the September 2025 memorandum of understanding (MoU) and advances the deployment of a Hydrogen Pathfinder Pilot in Singapore, reinforcing INNEOVA's role in the nation's decarbonisation efforts.

This collaboration aligns with Singapore's National Hydrogen Strategy, launched in 2022, which aims for net-zero emissions by 2050 and positions hydrogen to supply up to 50% of the nation's power needs by mid-century. By focusing on practical applications in hard-to-electrify sectors such as heavy industry, shipping, and mobility, the pilot will demonstrate the commercial viability of hydrogen technologies and support the diversification of Singapore's energy mix alongside solar, imported electricity, geothermal, and potential future nuclear sources.

Key elements of the strategic cooperation agreement

Under the SCA, INNEOVA Engineering and HyCee will leverage their complementary strengths to industrialise hydrogen energy technologies and promote low-carbon economic development in alignment with global ‘Dual Carbon’ goals. The partnership encompasses the following initiatives:

• Supporting the Hydrogen Ecosystem.
• Certification and road licensing for hydrogen-powered vehicles in Singapore.
• In-depth collaboration on fleet management for hydrogen-powered vehicles.

HyCee and GuoFu Hydrogen will designate a leading original equipment manufacturer (OEM) to design, develop, and manufacture up to 20 hydrogen-powered heavy-duty vehicles. Following the attainment of all relevant standards approvals, INNEOVA Engineering will serve as the exclusive distributor for these vehicles in Singapore. HyCee will establish and provide hydrogen refueling services for the fleet, supported by GuoFu Hydrogen's technical expertise and training for INNEOVA Engineering's service team at HyCee's premises.

INNEOVA Engineering will support homologation-related activities, working closely with relevant stakeholders to facilitate vehicle compliance and road readiness processes. The Company will also provide maintenance and operational support for the hydrogen refueling infrastructure and vehicles, with a focus on reliability, safety, and lifecycle efficiency.

A dedicated working coordination team will facilitate information exchange, coordination efforts, and implementation oversight to drive the project's success.

Advancing sustainable engineering solutions

This SCA positions INNEOVA Engineering as a key enabler of hydrogen adoption in Singapore, delivering engineering expertise and lifecycle management capabilities to support mission-critical sectors. "One way INNEOVA can enhance hydrogen adoption is by leveraging nearly commercially ready hydrogen power generation technologies through pathfinder projects," said Roger Chua, Director of INNEOVA Engineering.

“This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to advancing the hydrogen ecosystem,” said Syed Mubarak, Managing Director of HyCee. “By working together, we aim to develop practical and cost-effective solutions that support sustainable mobility and clean energy growth in Singapore and the region.”

The Company will provide ongoing updates to investors as the pilot progresses and additional commercial opportunities emerge within Singapore's expanding hydrogen ecosystem.
