KUALA LUMPUR: FGV Holdings Bhd is stepping up its renewable energy projects in a move to speed up its recovery strategy from the Covid-19 pandemic.

Group CEO Datuk Haris Fadzilah Hassan said on Monday the “waste-to-wealth” initiative was important to FGV due to the abundant resource derived from its plantation and mill activities.

“These include producing biogas fuels (gas, solid and liquid) to generate power. This initiative can be enhanced further as part of the group’s recovery strategy post COVID-19. “We are reviewing the initiatives under the segment to come up with a solid plan that could be executed immediately,” he said.
