SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Aslan Energy Capital (Aslan) has 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. This agreement 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.
Located in Caborca, Sonora, Mexico, ANEM is set to be operational by 2028, representing a significant step toward Mexico’s net-zero future. 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.
Strategic Partnership with CalYan XGH
Aslan and CalYan have signed an MOU to explore a strategic partnership, under which CalYan could purchase up to 100,000 TPA of sustainable hydrogen from ANEM’s production facilities in Sonora. The collaboration aims to establish a seamless clean hydrogen supply chain to California.
Under the agreement, 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.
Leadership Perspectives
“This collaboration underscores both parties’ commitment to accelerating the global energy transition and fostering sustainable development,” said Muthu Chezhian, CEO of Aslan Energy Capital. “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.”
“We are excited to be part of Aslan’s transformational journey and to help build a transparent, vibrant hydrogen marketplace for our customers,” said Yathish Sarathy, CEO of CalYan XGH.
