KUALA LUMPUR: Trive Property Group Bhd
will assist Vsolar Group Bhd to develop solar energy generation facilities with gross development value of RM150mil in a solar farming project with Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM).
In a statement, Trive, a pioneer in the research, development and manufacture of green energy storage solutions and battery-related products, said it would supply various solar components such as solar panels, solar inverters, battery chargers, batteries, solar pumps, mounting frames, trackers, accessories and others.
UTM and VSolar had signed a joint venture (JV) agreement on April 11 to develop the facilities and conduct research and development activities into commercialisation of renewable energy technologies, where UTM will provide a 20-acre site per 10 megawatts for the facilities with up to a capacity of 30 megawatts.
