Little glitter in large-scale solar projects


Third round: Contractors installing solar panesl at a LSS project site at Kuala Langat. The third round of bidding for LSS power plants attracted 112 companies, with the lowest offering 17.7 sen for 100MW.

The drive towards having 20% of power generated from renewable energy (RE) has resulted in the popularity of large-scale solar (LSS) plants and the building of an ecosystem revolving around the sector.

The growing number of companies participating in the government’s series of exercises to award private companies the mandate to build and operate LSS power plants with a capacity of up to 100MW is a clear indication that there is a growing interest in solar power plant projects.
