The Research and Postgraduate Centre congratulates Soh Mian Yu and Assoc. Prof. Ir. Ts. Dr. Wong Shen Yuong (corresponding author) from the School of Electrical Engineering and Artificial Intelligence on their recent research article published in Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews (RSER), an SCI Tier-1 journal with the latest impact factor of 16.3.
Soh Mian Yu is currently pursuing a Master's degree in Chemical Engineering, having completed his Bachelor's degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering (Hons) at Xiamen University Malaysia in September 2023. His master’s research project is supervised by Assoc. Prof. Ir. Ts. Dr. Wong Shen Yuong.
The article is the result of an international collaborative research project led by Dr. Wong, in partnership with the University of Malaya (Malaysia), the University of Pisa (Italy), and Open Energy Transition (Germany).
The study, titled "Prospect of Green Hydrogen in the Malaysian Iron and Steel Industry: Techno-economic Assessment and Energy Modelling using PyPSA-Earth", examines the feasibility of decarbonising the iron and steel sector through hydrogen-based technologies. It compares two approaches - centralised hydrogen production with pipeline distribution, and decentralised, grid-connected electrolysis - using Malaysia as a case study and the PyPSA-Earth modelling framework for analysis.

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my supervisor, Associate Professor Ir. Ts. Dr. Wong Shen Yuong, for her invaluable guidance and encouragement throughout this research. This achievement would not have been possible without her steadfast mentorship and support. It has been a great privilege to contribute to this project and gain valuable experience along the way. With the publication of this article, I hope it provides useful insights into the role of green hydrogen in Malaysia’s iron and steel industry through techno-economic assessment and energy modeling using PyPSA-Earth. | |
