  • ACWA Power signs MoUs and SPAs with Malaysian entities to accelerate decarbonisation and green hydrogen production, aligning with national energy transition goals.
  • Strategic agreements aim to develop up to 12.5GW of power generation capacity by 2040 with an initial investment of USD 10 billion, contributing to Malaysia's renewable energy targets.
  • Collaborations with key entities focus on joint development of energy and water projects including floating solar PV systems and large-scale water desalination infrastructure to enhance energy security and resilience.
  • ACWA Power's global footprint expansion into Southeast Asia underlines the commitment to driving the global energy transition through innovative projects and partnerships, fostering sustainable growth and regional collaboration.
ACWA Power, a prominent player in the global energy transition and private water desalination, has signed multiple MoUs and SPAs with leading Malaysian entities during the ASEAN-GCC Summit in Kuala Lumpur. The agreements aim to accelerate decarbonisation, foster green hydrogen production, and develop advanced water solutions, aligning with Malaysia's National Energy Transition Roadmap. By partnering with Malaysian organizations, ACWA Power plans to deploy clean energy solutions, promote technology transfer, and contribute to economic growth and social well-being. The initiatives include a USD 10 billion investment to develop up to 12.5GW of power generation capacity by 2040, supporting Malaysia's goal of increasing renewable energy share. Collaborations with entities like Tenaga Nasional Berhad and UEM Lestra focus on joint projects such as floating solar PV systems and water desalination infrastructure to enhance energy security and accelerate sustainable energy development. ACWA Power's expansion into Southeast Asia reflects a broader trend of regional collaboration in addressing climate change and deploying clean energy technologies.
