Doosan Fuel Cell Teams Up with HD Hydrogen and HD Hyundai Infracore to Develop Next-Generation Distributed Power Solutions
- Establishing an eco-friendly model that can be linked with renewable energy, supporting hydrogen ecosystem growth and global expansion
Doosan Fuel Cell has partnered with HD Hyundai to develop a future-ready distributed power model based on domestic eco-friendly technologies.
On the 26th, the company signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with HD Hydrogen and HD Hyundai Infracore at the Global R&D Center (GRC) in Seongnam, Gyeonggi Province, to “address emerging power demand with domestic eco-friendly hybrid energy.”
The MOU aims to respond to rapidly increasing power demand—including from AI data centers—and to support Korea’s nationally determined contribution(NDC) on carbon-neutral targets by advancing clean energy supply technologies.
Under the MOU, Doosan Fuel Cell and HD Hydrogen will supply hydrogen fuel cells based on domestic technologies, expanding the ecosystem through industrial development and job creation, and collaborating on base-load technologies within the hybrid system. HD Hyundai Infracore will be responsible for supplying gas and hydrogen engines built on domestic technology and leading the development of peak-load capabilities for the hybrid system.
The three companies will also work together on: ▲ Strengthening competitiveness and stabilizing the supply chain for domestic eco-friendly energy technologies; ▲ Advancing CCS (carbon capture & storage) technologies based on hydrogen fuel cells and gas engines, and identifying potential carbon utilization markets; and, ▲ Supporting ecosystem growth through policy alignment and regulatory support.
The hybrid system under development will serve as an eco-friendly distributed power model that ensures stable electricity supply by combining hydrogen fuel cells with gas/hydrogen engines. Hydrogen fuel cells, which allow non-stop operation with near-zero emissions, will supply base-load power, and tap into gas and hydrogen engines to flexibly respond to peak, high-demand conditions.
Doosan Fuel Cell’s Vice President Seungjun Lee said, “this hybrid system developed under this collaboration, directly supports Korea’s carbon-neutral strategy and is an optimal business model to balance the variability of renewable energy sources like solar or wind power. We will continuously make efforts to lead the future distributed power market and pursue opportunities in the global markets through next-generation clean power systems.”
