Next Hydrogen announces Strategic Partnership with Sungrow Hydrogen

Under this agreement, Next Hydrogen will leverage Sungrow Hydrogen’s existing 3 GW manufacturing facility to deliver on large volume orders starting in 2026, while ensuring continued control over the company’s intellectual property and the design of its electrolysers. Sungrow Hydrogen will also provide associated balance of plant systems, enhancing supply chain efficiency and cost competitiveness.

Additionally, the two companies will collaborate on co-development and cross-selling opportunities to offer customers a broader range of green hydrogen solutions to decarbonise ammonia, aviation fuels, refinery, steel, and transportation industries.

Next Hydrogen will continue its research and development activities in Canada. To support both global and North American market requirements, Next Hydrogen and Sungrow Hydrogen are also exploring expanding Next Hydrogen’s North American manufacturing footprint. This approach ensures localised production capabilities, while maintaining supply chain flexibility and compliance with evolving regional clean energy policies.

Raveel Afzaal, President and CEO of Next Hydrogen, said: “By leveraging Sungrow Hydrogen as an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) partner, we can accelerate our path to market and efficiently scale production to meet demand for large scale green hydrogen projects.”

“Next Hydrogen has developed an electrolyser design optimised for direct connection to renewables,” said Peng Chaocai, Vice President of Sungrow and Chairman of Sungrow Hydrogen. “We will apply our commercialisation and manufacturing expertise to help scale production, while also leveraging Next Hydrogen’s deep knowledge of the North American market. Together, we will combine our expertise in water electrolysis to deliver products at a competitive price, driving large scale adoption of green hydrogen worldwide.”

This strategic partnership positions both companies to accelerate the transition to green hydrogen, providing scalable, cost-effective solutions to support global clean energy goals.
