GUOFUHEE Joins Hands with Thailand’s CP Group Family Fund to Jointly Explore New Tracks in Southeast Asia’s Data Center Power Supply and Hydrogen Energy Equipment
Jiangsu Guofu Hydrogen Energy Equipment Co., Ltd. (“GUOFUHEE”) has entered into a strategic joint venture with a holding company under the family fund of a core member of Thailand’s CP Group. The two parties will establish a new joint venture company to drive the deployment of AI data center power solutions and hydrogen energy infrastructure across Southeast Asia, supporting the low-carbon transition of the regional digital economy and the scaling of the hydrogen industry. This cooperation directly addresses the pressing challenges of power shortages and high energy consumption amid the rapid growth of Southeast Asia’s AI data center sector. Centered on modular power supply products, the joint venture will deliver stable, low-carbon and high-efficiency power solutions for data centers in Thailand and the broader Southeast Asia region, unlocking bottlenecks in the development of computing infrastructure. Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, the new entity will operate as a regional market-focused operator, with three core business pillars tailored to local demand: 1. Low-Carbon Power Solutions for AI Data Centers Leveraging GUOFUHEE’s deep expertise in power generation and distributed energy systems, the joint venture will provide reliable, clean power for AI data centers. This responds directly to the urgent need for green computing infrastructure as Thailand and Southeast Asia advance their digital economies, enabling data centers to achieve low-carbon, high-efficiency and sustainable growth. 2. Hydrogen Mobility and Refueling Network The joint venture will focus on commercializing hydrogen mobility solutions in Southeast Asia, including hydrogen-powered heavy-duty trucks and hydrogen refueling systems based on hydrogen-swapping models. It will also build and operate a network of hydrogen refueling stations in key areas such as Thailand’s Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC) and central Bangkok, creating a fully integrated hydrogen ecosystem spanning production, storage, transportation, refueling and end-use. This will support decarbonization in Thailand’s transportation sector and accelerate the rollout of hydrogen trucks in logistics, port and industrial applications. 3. Smart Drone Ecosystem Development Building on the CP Group’s strong local presence in agriculture and logistics, the joint venture will deploy smart drone solutions for agricultural plant protection and logistics delivery. This will enhance agricultural productivity and digitalization across Thailand and Southeast Asia, while establishing efficient, low-cost drone logistics networks to support the growth of the region’s smart logistics industry. Thailand has emerged as a key growth engine for Southeast Asia’s digital economy, with its data center market expanding rapidly. According to IDCNOVA monitoring data, there are approximately 60 publicly tracked data center facilities across 8 core markets in Thailand (as of April 2026), placing it among the region’s top-tier data center hubs. True IDC (part of the CP Group ecosystem) currently operates more than 150 MW of power capacity. It launched Thailand’s first AI hyperscale data center in 2025 and announced a new AI hyperscale campus in the EEC region in April 2026 (targeting up to 250 MW), reflecting the market’s strong growth momentum. As leading players including the CP Group accelerate data center infrastructure investments in Thailand, green and low-carbon development has become an industry priority. This landmark partnership will prioritize data center green energy solutions to capture market share, while simultaneously advancing hydrogen mobility and smart drone initiatives. The goal is to build a synergistic ecosystem of “digital energy + hydrogen mobility + smart equipment” across Southeast Asia.
