Hydrogen tech centre launches soon

MIRI: Sarawak Skills and i-Cats University College (iCATS UC), will establish a Centre of Excellence in Hydrogen Supply Chain Technologies next year.

In preparation, a delegation from Sarawak Skills and iCATS UC visited four organisations in China, including Foshan Feichi Motor Technology Co. Ltd, Foshan Polytechnic, Sino-Synergy Headquarters in Foshan, and Guangdong Sageran Technology in Guangzhou from November 25 to 29.

“This is an important milestone for Sarawak Skills, iCATS UC, and our strategic partners in China. It contributes to the development of Sarawak and Malaysia in line with our state and national aspirations. We plan to send a team of instructors and lecturers to these organisations to develop hydrogen-related training programmes and engage in research and development,” said Sarawak Skills executive director Hallman Sabri recently.

Sabri also mentioned that experts from Foshan Polytechnic would come at Sarawak Skills Kuching and assist in setting up the centre.

“This collaboration is critical for the successful transfer of relevant new technologies,” he added.
