- Construction of key infrastructure, including hydrogen reformers and fueling stations, is expected to begin this year, with completion aimed for 2027.
- This marks Hyundai's first international expansion of its waste-to-hydrogen technology, supporting Indonesia's energy independence and waste management efforts.
