The Vietnamese government is committed, together with the business community, to building a hydrogen ecosystem to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. In this effort, pioneering companies with technological expertise and a global vision play a critical role, with Indefol Group emerging as a leading example.
Indelfol’s technology production line
Frontline role in the hydrogen sector
Founded in 2008, Indefol Group has secured a strong position in the renewable energy sector, particularly in solar power, with over 60 projects totaling more than 800 MWp across Germany, Australia, Indonesia, and Cambodia. In Vietnam, the company has deployed large-scale rooftop solar systems for industrial zones and factories, reducing hundreds of thousands of tons of CO₂ annually. Notable projects include the Vietnam-Singapore Industrial Park in Binh Duong (30 MWp) and a 50 MWp solar cluster in Tay Ninh.
From 2017 to 2019, Indefol Group established a strong reputation as a renewable energy provider for global sports corporations in Germany and Australia, delivering rooftop solar projects for Adidas factories in Germany and a logistics center in Sydney, Australia. These projects were certified under RE100, highlighting the company’s credibility, technological expertise, and capacity to meet international ESG standards. Building on this foundation, Indefol Group is now advancing into green hydrogen, reinforcing the pioneering vision of a Vietnamese enterprise on the global renewable energy stage.
In 2025, Indefol Group further strengthened its position by launching an Alkaline Electrolyzer Manufacturing Plant in Tay Ninh. This is the first and most substantial hydrogen equipment production facility in Vietnam, with a design capacity of 144 units per year. This milestone marks a turning point for Vietnam’s energy sector, shifting from research and testing to production and commercialization of hydrogen equipment. The plant not only serves the domestic market but also aims to participate deeply in the global hydrogen value chain, especially in Southeast Asia and Europe.
Complete energy ecosystem
In its green hydrogen development strategy, Indefol Solar and Indefol GmbH serve as complementary pillars, forming a closed-loop green energy ecosystem that spans clean power generation, hydrogen production, and industrial derivatives.
Indefol Solar focuses on large-scale clean energy investments, including solar, wind, and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). This provides stable, low-cost, zero-emission electricity for water electrolysis. Currently, Indefol Solar operates solar clusters in Tay Ninh, Khanh Hoa, and Ho Chi Minh City totaling over 800 MWp, while exploring offshore wind expansion to support large-scale hydrogen production.
Indefol GmbH is responsible for R&D and manufacturing of Alkaline water electrolysis equipment, energy storage and conversion systems, and Power-to-X infrastructure. Its technology allows direct use of renewable electricity from Indefol Solar to produce green hydrogen and convert it into green ammonia, green methanol, or synthetic fuels (e-fuel), serving heavy industry, chemicals, transportation, and export markets in Europe, Japan, and South Korea.
Together, these units form a closed-loop “From Solar to H2” value chain, where Indefol Solar supplies electricity and Indefol GmbH converts it into high-value energy products. This structure reduces hydrogen production costs, enhances international competitiveness, and opens a path for autonomous clean energy industrial development in Vietnam.
This dual strategy lays the foundation for Indefol Group to evolve from an energy investor into a comprehensive green technology group, helping Vietnam integrate more deeply into the global hydrogen supply chain.
Alongside domestic investment, Indefol Group actively expands international cooperation with strategic partners from Germany, Australia, and Japan. These collaborations focus on advanced electrolysis technology transfer, materials research, energy storage solutions, and attracting green investment and high-quality human resources for Vietnam’s hydrogen industry.
