Aramco Ventures has completed a strategic investment in SINOHYDO, marking its first investment in the hydrogen sector in the Asia-Pacific region. ZhenFund previously participated in SINOHYDO’s angel round in 2021.
Founded in 2021, SINOHYDO is committed to advancing green hydrogen technology in collaboration with global energy leaders. To address the challenges of the green hydrogen era, the company pioneered the Hydolyser® system, a square-plate pressurized water electrolysis solution known for its high efficiency, dynamic adaptability, ease of maintenance, and intelligent operation. SINOHYDO currently leads the Chinese market in square electrolyzer shipments. Its operations span China, Europe, and the Middle East, with deep partnerships with Shell, TotalEnergies, Sinopec, China Energy Investment Corporation, Goldwind, and other global energy leaders to accelerate hydrogen industry development.
Aramco Ventures is the corporate venture arm of Saudi Aramco, one of the world’s largest integrated energy and chemicals companies. It also manages Prosperity7, a fund dedicated to breakthrough technology investments. Aramco Ventures has designated SINOHYDO as a core project in its hydrogen portfolio (Anchor Project), providing continued support for market expansion and technological advancement in the global green hydrogen sector—demonstrating its strong confidence in SINOHYDO’s technology and potential.
This investment follows Sinopec’s strategic investment earlier this year, further accelerating SINOHYDO’s progress in technological innovation, market expansion, and international collaboration. It will enable the company to strengthen partnerships and business networks across the Middle East, Europe, North Africa, and Central Asia while exploring new market opportunities. This collaboration represents a milestone for both SINOHYDO and the global green hydrogen industry, injecting fresh momentum into the company’s international growth.
