Malaysian clean energy solutions provider Gentari, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Gentari Renewables Sdn Bhd, has signed landmark Solar Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) with telecommunications company Telekom Malaysia (TM) to power six key TM facilities with solar energy.

Gentari said in a statement on last Thursday that these PPAs are part of an ongoing collaboration between TM and Petroliam Nasional Berhad (Petronas) which recently expanded into a new tripartite memorandum of understanding (MoU) between TM, Petronas and Gentari to drive the decarbonization of TM’s assets in Malaysia.

The PPAs underscore Gentari’s focus on driving progress in the adoption of renewable energy in Malaysia’s Commercial and Industrial (C&I) sector and aligns with TM’s agenda to integrate sustainability into its operations and achieve long-term energy cost savings.

Under the agreements, Gentari will design, install and operate solar energy systems at TM facilities, supplying approximately 4.3 MWp of solar power.

These systems are estimated to generate 4.82 GWh of capacity annually and reduce about 3,655,251 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (tCO2e).

This initiative contributes to TM’s decarbonization journey by enabling clean energy to power its key operations in six locations including TM’s data centers in Cyberjaya and Iskandar Puteri, the TM R&D Complex in Cyberjaya, TM Stesen Kabel Dasar Laut (SKDL) in Mersing and Multimedia University campuses in Cyberjaya and Melaka.

The deployment at TM’s university campuses is part of a broader green campus initiative adopted by several learning institutions in Malaysia.

Gentari has already completed solar power installations for Universiti Teknologi Petronas (UTP) and Institut Teknologi Petroleum Petronas (INSTEP).

“This PPA marks a significant milestone, beyond advancing TM’s decarbonization goals and growing Gentari’s presence in Malaysia’s renewable energy market,

“By delivering impactful tailored solutions in the C&I segment for diverse industries, this effort also brings us closer to Malaysia’s net zero goals and paves the way for more partnerships, in line with Gentari’s vision to become Asia Pacific’s most valued clean energy solutions partner by 2030,” said Low Kian Min, Gentari’s Chief Renewables Officer.

“With TM, we look forward to growing our collaboration beyond C&I applications in Malaysia and across the region,” he added.

Nor Fadhilah Mohd Ali, TM’s Chief Corporate Officer, said this collaboration with Gentari provides TM access to the latest green energy technologies, while fostering knowledge sharing and upskilling opportunities for TM’s employees in sustainable best practices.

“This paves the way for TM’s aspiration towards Net Zero 2050, reinforcing our sustainability objectives to transition to renewable energy and enhance our resilience in energy security management,

“This is a pivotal part of our Digital Powerhouse aspirations, aligning our business with what is best for society and contributing to a better future for all,” he added.

To date, Gentari has achieved 8 GW of installed and under construction renewable energy capacity globally across Malaysia, India and Australia.
