Pahang is the largest state and has the longest river in Peninsular Malaysia, making it attractive for the development of large scale solar photovoltaic and small hydro projects. The companies have agreed to discuss the projects further and Malakoff will now conduct a feasibility study to ascertain the projects technical and commercial viability.
The MoU was signed by Malakoff Chief Executive Officer, YBhg Dato’ Ahmad Fuaad Kenali while TMn was represented by its Chief Executive Officer, Y.M. Tengku Dato’ Abdul Aziz bin Tengku Ibrahim.
“This MoU will serve as a platform to exchange knowledge and expertise that will be of invaluable benefit to both companies” said Dato’ Ahmad Fuaad. “It also shows Malakoff’s commitment to expand renewable energy in its generation portfolio. These projects will serve as a catalyst for Malakoff to play a bigger role in developing RE projects in Malaysia”.
