Malaysia: Sunny Prospects For Solar

In a series of conversations, we discuss the game changing opportunities, notably for solar industry players, as presented by Malaysia’s Renewable Energy (RE) Roadmap. If things go according to plan, RE contribution could increase from 23% of the total energy mix to 31% in 2025, and 40% in 2035. Apart from its environmental benefits, RE increases energy diversity and lowers energy security risk, which is often overlooked until the Russia-Ukraine conflict. We explore how ASEAN could strategically increase its own energy security via an ASEAN power grid linking the Indochina region to Malaysia, and down to Singapore. 00:48 - RE Roadmap - Nur Farah Syifaa’, Analyst, Maybank  03:06 - Opportunities, listing plans - Ko Chuan Zhen, GCEO & Co-Founder, Plus Xnergy 11:44 - Call on Cypark, Solarvest - Syifaa’ 13:31 - Russia-Ukraine, China lockdowns, new growth drivers, green hydrogen - Davis Chong, GCEO, Solarvest 20:50 - ASEAN power grid - Dr Philip Andrews-Speed, Senior Principal Fellow, Energy Studies Institute, NUS Acronyms mentioned: PPA - Power purchase agreements EPCC - Engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning LCOE - Levelised cost of energy FiT - Feed-in-tariff NEM - Net energy metering Presenter & Producer: Noelle Lim
