Hyundai Motor Group to build waste to hydrogen ecosystem in Indonesia

Hyundai Motor Group has developed an action plan to establish a waste-to-hydrogen ecosystem in West Java Province, Indonesia. It has partnered with Indonesia’s Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, the Ministry of National Development Planning, and PT Pertamina (Persero) for this initiative. 

Furthermore, Hyundai Motor Group will establish an on-site hydrogen refueling station using PT Pertamina’s existing compressed natural gas infrastructure. It is targeting the operational launch of the refuelling station by 2027. Low-carbon hydrogen produced from biogas sourced at the Sarimukti landfill near Bandung, which is the capital of West Java Province, will be supplied to the refuelling station.

Additionally, the Hyundai Motor Group plans to commence construction of the refuelling station this year upon completion of a technical feasibility study on the Sarimukti landfill development. The plan for the initiative aligns with the objectives of Indonesia’s central government ministries and is reflected in its National Hydrogen and Ammonia Roadmap.
