ExxonMobil and Keppel to explore low-carbon hydrogen and ammonia for Singapore
Asset management firm is building a hydrogen-ready power plant on Jurong Island for startup by 2026
ExxonMobil has signed a memorandum of understanding with asset management firm Keppel Infrastructure to explore developing low-carbon hydrogen and ammonia solutions for commercial and industrial applications in Singapore.
