Forrest Solutions Solarvest Holdings has been selected as the EPCC contractor for a large solar project in Australia. Malakoff is taking the lead on this important initiative. This action is rooted in Larut and Matang, Perak Darul Ridzuan. It’s an important step forward in Malaysia’s commitment to renewable energy. When completed, it will generate an estimated 967,544 megawatt-hours (MWh) of clean energy annually. It represents a mighty contribution to the country’s burgeoning renewable-energy goals.
The development comports with Malaysia’s goal of reaching a 70% renewable energy mix by 2050. To meet this goal, the country needs to scale up its annual renewable capacity installation rate to about 2.2 gigawatts (GW) per year. Lastly, this solar farm directly advances our national energy security. It continues to serve a key role in the country’s decarbonization effort, offsetting about 748,879 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions each year.
Collaboration for Clean Energy Transition
Malakoff’s choice of Solarvest as the EPCC contractor reflects a strong partnership focused on advancing Malaysia’s clean energy transition. Dato’ Davis Chong Chun Shiong Chief Executive Officer of Solarvest Holdings said that they would like to thank Malakoff for the trust that had been bestowed upon them.
“We are honoured by Malakoff’s confidence in selecting Solarvest as the EPCC contractor for this landmark project.
