TNB has an extensive fibre optic network, present in its transmission lines and main substations, which can be utilised to expand high speed broadband access into rural areas.

KUALA LUMPUR: Tenaga Nasional Bhd has signed the LSS photovoltaic power purchase agreement with the successful bidders of the large-scale solar competitive bidding exercise organised by Suruhanjaya Tenaga to develop transmission-connected LSS projects.
