LONDON, Sept. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — AFC Energy, a leading provider of hydrogen energy solutions, today announces that it has signed an exclusive distribution agreement with Saudi Arabia’s The Machinery Group LLC, trading as TAMGO, to market and sell AFC Energy’s zero emission hydrogen fuelled H-Power Generators into the significant Saudi Arabian industrial and off-grid power markets, and a further 16 surrounding countries.
TAMGO is an approved vendor to many of Saudi Arabia’s mega and large-scale infrastructure and mining projects including NEOM, Red Sea Global and Qiddiya with customers including Aramco and Altaaqa Alternative Solutions, one of Saudi Arabia’s leading power rental businesses.

This region’s rental power market is already worth more than USD1.6bn and is projected to increase to USD3.2bn by the end of 2030. AFC Energy’s technology provides clean electricity for on and off grid power applications and will aid the decarbonisation of society’s growing electrification needs.
TAMGO will have exclusive rights in the region to AFC Energy’s S Series (air-cooled) and S+ Series (liquid-cooled) fuel cell generators currently ranging from 10kW to 200kW.
