Under this new partnership, Spectronik will deploy HYDGEN’s modular electrolysers to generate high-purity green hydrogen directly at its fuel cell demonstration sites. The goal is to validate a decentralised, closed-loop hydrogen ecosystem – producing and consuming hydrogen on-site – to accelerate commercial readiness in the mobility sector.
The collaboration aligns both companies around a shared vision: making hydrogen more accessible and affordable for industrial and transport applications through distributed production rather than centralised supply and delivery chains.
Enabling the hydrogen mobility ecosystem
As adoption of hydrogen fuel cells gains traction in commercial and heavy-duty transportation, a key barrier remains: consistent, cost-effective access to clean hydrogen. HYDGEN’s on-site generation technology addresses this challenge directly by enabling users to produce hydrogen where and when they need it, eliminating dependency on centralised infrastructure, delivery logistics, and grey hydrogen sources.
“Fuel cell vehicles are an important lever to decarbonise transport, but the logistics of hydrogen refuelling stations have constrained their deployment,” said Michael Gryseels, Chairman of HYDGEN. “By offering on-site hydrogen production, we generate a closed-loop system and avoid the logistical complexities of hydrogen transport. Together with Spectronik, we are laying the groundwork for an economically viable and fully carbon-free transport system based on hydrogen.”
Demonstrating commercial viability
Spectronik will integrate HYDGEN’s electrolyser systems into real-world fuel cell deployments across various transport use cases, including automotive and light logistics platforms. These deployments will showcase fully integrated hydrogen loops, proving that clean hydrogen mobility can be both technically and economically viable with the right infrastructure in place.
Jogjaman Jap, CEO of Spectronik echoed the sentiment: “Fuel cells are a potential solution for automotive decarbonisation, but hydrogen supply has always been a challenge. With HYDGEN’s help, we now have a way to secure high-purity, cost-competitive green hydrogen directly at our test sites. This changes the economics of the equation.”
The partnership is expected to lay the foundation for commercial supply agreements and larger scale deployments across the Asia-Pacific in the near future.
Accelerating Asia’s energy transition and transport decarbonisation
The collaboration comes at a time when governments and investors across the region are doubling down on hydrogen as a strategic pillar for climate and industrial policy. Singapore, in particular, has identified low-carbon hydrogen as a key area of growth, and both HYDGEN and Spectronik are well-positioned to contribute to national and regional decarbonisation goals.
“This partnership is more than just two companies working together,” added Gryseels. “It is about creating confidence in the entire hydrogen value chain, from production to application. Our goal is to support customers in the automotive, logistics, and heavy transport sectors who are ready to decarbonise, but are waiting for the infrastructure to catch up.”
