Aslan on the Move: Mexico H2 Project Creating Future Green Hydrogen for California
Aslan Energy Capital is building a green hydrogen (H2) project in Mexico that will create carbon-free H2 and ammonia for U.S. markets from electrolyzers powered by solar energy.
The Aslan Net-Zero Energy Mexico Project will transport the hydrogen and ammonia for California-based CalYan XGH for downstream distribution and infrastructure within the state. The collaboration is intended to establish a clean hydrogen supply chain throughout California.
The Aslan Net-Zero Energy Mexico Project is planned for completion by 2028 and will include solar panels situated along the coastline of Sonora, Mexico. The initiative includes solar farm development, leveraging Sonora's solar resources to generate renewable energy powering electrolyzers for sustainable hydrogen production.

As part of the agreement, Aslan will be responsible for hydrogen delivery to the southern California border, while CalYan intends to operate as a key offtaker to support the state’s growing demand for clean energy, especially for technology data centers and sustainable mobility infrastructures.
Hydrogen is a light, energy-dense gas which has no carbon in its molecular chain and thus does not emit CO2 when combusted. It is not naturally mined on its own but must be separated from either methane gas or water by various methods.
To be classified as green hydrogen, the H2 is split from water using electrolyzers powered by carbon-free resources such as solar, wind, hydro or nuclear.
