MEXICO CITY, MEXICO (Fidencio Casillas, Energy Analytics Institute, 14.Feb.2025) — LNG Alliance Pte Ltd, Singapore affiliate Aslan Energy Capital, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to supply 100,000 tonnes per annum (TPA) of sustainable hydrogen from its green hydrogen project development in Sonora, Mexico, to California-based CalYan XGH Inc.
The MOU marks a major milestone for the Aslan Net-Zero Energy Mexico (ANEM) project, a solar-powered facility dedicated to producing green hydrogen and green ammonia, Aslan announced 14 Feb. 2025 in an official statement.
Located in Caborca, Sonora, Mexico, ANEM is slated to be operational by 2028, representing a significant step toward Mexico’s net-zero future.
“This collaboration underscores both parties’ commitment to accelerating the global energy transition and fostering sustainable development,” Aslan Energy Capital CEO Muthu Chezhian said in the statement. “By combining our infrastructure expertise with CalYan’s market leadership in California, we aim to set a new benchmark for sustainable hydrogen production and export.”
The 35,000-hectare project, situated along the coastline of Sonora near Puerto Lobos, benefits from deepwater marine access. This ambitious initiative includes solar farm development, leveraging Sonora’s abundant solar resources to generate renewable energy that powers electrolyzers for sustainable hydrogen production, according to Aslan.
Per the MOU, Aslan will be responsible for hydrogen delivery to the Southern California border, while CalYan will manage downstream distribution and infrastructure within California to ensure efficient hydrogen utilization. CalYan plans to act as a key offtaker, supporting California’s growing demand for clean energy, particularly for technology data centers and sustainable mobility infrastructures.
