Greenstat Asia’s Chairman Sturle H. Pedersen recently met with Dr. Ashish Kannan, Director General of the International Solar Alliance (ISA), for a high-level discussion aimed at strengthening collaboration between the two organisations.
The meeting marked an important milestone in Greenstat Asia’s mission to accelerate green hydrogen and renewable energy partnerships across Sri Lanka, Asia, and ISA’s global member countries. Both leaders reaffirmed their shared commitment to supporting the sustainable energy transition, with a focus on innovation, technology transfer, and clean energy capacity building.
The discussions explored avenues to align Greenstat Asia’s green hydrogen expertise with ISA’s solar leadership to create synergistic projects in Sri Lanka and the wider Asia-Pacific region.
Chairman Pedersen highlighted Greenstat Asia’s role in promoting renewable energy education, public-private partnerships, and pilot projects that can fast-track the commercialisation of green hydrogen in Sri Lanka. Both sides agreed that combining forces would provide greater momentum towards Asia’s energy transition goals, ensuring equitable access to clean energy technologies.
Chairman Pedersen expressed Greenstat Asia’s readiness to work closely with ISA to shape impactful actions that accelerate Asia’s energy transition, while contributing to global climate goals through sustainable and inclusive energy solutions.
Explore the cutting edge of sustainable energy innovation with our exclusive webinar replay, “The Future of Floating Production Facilities for Green Ammonia: The P2XFloater™”, featuring Michael Peder Kristensen, Chief Commercial Officer at H2Carrier AS.
This engaging session introduces the P2XFloater™, the world’s first industrial-scale floating PtX (Power-to-X) facility for green hydrogen production and clean ammonia (eAmmonia). Leveraging proven FPSO (Floating Production, Storage, and Offloading) technology, this revolutionary platform integrates PEM electrolysis and the Haber-Bosch process to convert renewable electricity into hydrogen and ammonia—enabling offshore, zero-emission energy export.
With potential annual outputs ranging from 100,000 to 820,000 tonnes of eAmmonia, the P2XFloater™ offers a scalable and mobile solution that addresses land constraints and supports the global hydrogen economy. It is a major step toward renewable energy utilization and global decarbonisation.

In a key dialogue on Sri Lanka’s renewable energy future, Greenstat Asia Chairman Sturle Harald Pedersen met with the Honourable Prime Minister and Minister of Education, Harini Amarasuriya, to explore long-term collaboration in green hydrogen education, research, and capacity building.
The discussion focused on strengthening institutional partnerships to advance Sri Lanka’s hydrogen roadmap, combining international expertise with local innovation.
Also present at the meeting were Nalaka Kaluwewe, Secretary to the Ministry of Education, and Prasadini Wickramasinghe, Coordinator of the Greenstat Centre of Excellence for Hydrogen (COE-H) in Sri Lanka.
Mr. Pedersen outlined Greenstat’s mission to support Sri Lanka’s clean energy goals and shared recent progress in developing a national ecosystem for hydrogen research and knowledge exchange.
Greenstat is collaborating with Sri Lankan universities to launch the country’s first Master’s programme in green hydrogen. A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) has already been signed with the University of Peradeniya, with further agreements underway with the University of Moratuwa, University of Jaffna, and University of Ruhuna.
Through the COE-H, Greenstat is integrating advanced software tools such as EFFECTS and RISKCURVES into university curricula. These tools are essential for training students in process safety, consequence modelling, and risk assessment in hydrogen production and storage.
Beyond academic collaboration, Greenstat’s initiatives focus on creating a skilled workforce and raising public awareness on green hydrogen.
The COE-H conducts free webinars covering various segments of the hydrogen value chain, offering knowledge-sharing opportunities for students, professionals, and policymakers.
In partnership with Midwest Energy, Greenstat Hydrogen Sri Lanka is piloting a hydrogen-electric boat project in the Bentota estuary. The initiative aims to decarbonise inland water transport in tourism and fisheries sectors by replacing ageing diesel vessels with clean, quiet electric alternatives—protecting ecosystems and improving visitor experience.
During the meeting, Prime Minister Amarasuriya acknowledged Greenstat’s commitment to sustainable development and expressed interest in expanding hydrogen-related content in technical and vocational education. Emphasis was placed on aligning curriculum development with global energy transition trends and preparing youth for emerging green jobs.
“We envision the Centre of Excellence as a national platform for international collaboration—from research partnerships to skills development,” said Mr. Sturle Pedersen, Chairman of Greenstat Asia and Honorary Consul of Sri Lanka in Bergen–Vestland. “We are grateful for the Ministry’s support in shaping a workforce ready to power a hydrogen-driven future.”
Greenstat Hydrogen Sri Lanka is a knowledge and innovation partner in the country’s hydrogen ecosystem, working with academic institutions, government agencies, and industry to accelerate Sri Lanka’s transition to a low-carbon economy. The company supports the entire hydrogen value chain—from feasibility studies and technology integration to project execution and investment facilitation.
By enabling international-local partnerships, providing cutting-edge tools, and promoting sustainable infrastructure, Greenstat is helping to shape Sri Lanka’s role as a regional leader in hydrogen innovation.
Greenstat Hydrogen Sri Lanka invites all stakeholders to join its mission of creating clean energy solutions and green job opportunities.
