Following a visit to Singapore in January, Minister for Trade and Investment Tim Pallas today announced SunGreenH2 has launched a research and development (R&D) and manufacturing operation in Clayton, creating more than 30 high-skilled jobs.

SunGreenH2 builds high performance hardware and develops complementary technology that allows for on-site green hydrogen production for industry, transport, energy storage and power-to-X applications.

The company’s decision to scale up and move the next phase of commercialisation of its product from Singapore to Victoria was due to the support from the Labor Government, the state’s strong capabilities in R&D and a renowned talent pool of advanced manufacturing talent, an official press release said.

As an advanced manufacturer of clean energy technology, SunGreenH2 is continually innovating its products through research and development to create effiencies and solve problems.

As investor interest from the region continues to grow, Invest Victoria on Tuesday will host the annual Partner Summit in Singapore, showcasing the breadth of opportunities that Victoria offers as an investment destination.

The enterprise value of Victoria’s startup ecosystem, including startups, scaleups and unicorns (companies valued at $1 billion), is $91 billion.

Support Independent Community Journalism

Dear Reader,

The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability. We publish in print and online, send regular newsletters and produce video content. We also run media training programs to help community organisations share their own stories.

We operate independently.

Community journalism does not have the backing of large media corporations. Advertising revenue fluctuates. Platform algorithms change. Costs continue to rise. Yet the need for credible, grounded reporting in a multicultural Australia has never been greater.

When you support The Indian Sun, you support:

• Independent reporting on issues affecting migrant communities
• Coverage of local and state decisions that shape daily life
• A platform for small businesses and community groups
• Media training that builds skills within the community
• Journalism accountable to readers

We cannot cover everything, but we work to cover what matters.

If you value thoughtful reporting that reflects Australia’s diversity, we invite you to contribute. Every donation helps us maintain the quality and consistency of our work.

Please consider making a contribution today.

Thank you for your support.

The Indian Sun Team
