TNB Renewables Sdn Bhd (TRe), a subsidiary of Malaysia’s leading electricity utility company Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB), has appointed AFRY as the owner’s engineer for a groundbreaking solar photovoltaic (PV) project in Kedah, Malaysia. This initiative forms part of the Corporate Green Power Programme (CGPP), demonstrating TRe’s commitment to accelerating sustainable energy adoption in Malaysia and Southeast Asia.

Situated in Pekan Labu Besar, Kedah state, Malaysia, the CGPP PV power plant is poised to deliver approximately 30 MWac of clean energy, employing ground-mounted single-axis solar trackers for optimal efficiency. Through a Virtual Power Purchase Agreement (VPPA), the project will facilitate a long-term energy procurement arrangement with a corporate consumer, ensuring stable pricing for the purchased clean energy.

AFRY, renowned for its expertise in renewable energy projects globally, has been entrusted with providing comprehensive owner’s engineering services for the CGPP solar PV project. Their responsibilities span a wide spectrum, including project management, design review, and overseeing the construction and commissioning phases, encompassing the electrical interconnection facility.

Petteri Härkki, AFRY’s Regional Director for Asia, expressed confidence in the project’s success, citing AFRY’s extensive track record spanning over 500 solar power projects across 80 countries. He highlighted the significance of this initiative in contributing to Malaysia’s renewable energy transition and combating greenhouse gas emissions.

The partnership between TRe and AFRY underscores a shared commitment to advancing sustainable energy solutions, aligning with global efforts to mitigate climate change and foster a cleaner, greener future. By harnessing solar energy and leveraging innovative financing mechanisms like VPPAs, the CGPP project represents a significant step towards achieving Malaysia’s renewable energy targets and promoting energy sustainability in the region.

This collaboration not only marks a milestone in Malaysia’s renewable energy journey but also sets a precedent for future collaborations between utilities and engineering firms to drive sustainable development and combat climate change on a global scale. As the world continues to prioritize renewable energy adoption, initiatives like the CGPP serve as beacons of hope, demonstrating the feasibility and efficacy of transitioning towards a low-carbon economy.
