The Road to Net Zero:
Why Hydrogen is Essential for Malaysia's
Transportation Sector
On this journey toward net zero emissions, we need to find reliable solutions, and grappling with heavy vehicle emissions is one step that we now know how to take. Governments vary in their approaches, with some prioritising infrastructure development and others focusing on creating market demand through vehicle deployment. However, a consistent theme is the involvement of both government and private sectors in research and technology development to drive the hydrogen market forward.
