Under the agreement, the two parties will develop a hydrogen fuel cell package dedicated to mobile power generators and alternative maritime power (AMP) supply solutions, based on Hyundai Motor's polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) system that is used in Hyundai Motor's fuel cell vehicles.

As a part of this collaboration, Hyundai Motor will supply PEMFC fuel cell systems and provide technical support whereas Hyundai Electric will majorly focus on developing and commercialising a fuel cell-based power generation package that includes mobile generators and AMP supply systems. Hyundai Electric will also explore a variety of business models for marketing the new package in Korea and abroad.
Saehoon Kim, Executive Vice President and the Head of Fuel Cell Center of Hyundai Motor Group said, "This MOU underlines the importance of providing carbon-neutral solutions in power generation applications in order to accelerate the establishment of a sustainable hydrogen society. Hyundai Motor will continue to expand the potential of hydrogen fuel cell technology beyond mobility applications and into the power generation market."
