Nga said the government is also working with state governments, local councils as well as strategic partners for the implementation of WTE projects in every state.

PETALING JAYA: The Local Government Development Ministry (KPKT) encourages private finance initiatives (PFI) in renewable energy (RE) in line with the country’s aim to become South-East Asia’s RE powerhouse.

KPKT minister Nga Kor Ming said the move towards RE is a national mission and the government welcomes PFIs such as the waste-to-energy (WTE) facility built by Berjaya Enviro Parks Sdn Bhd’s (BEPSB) at Bukit Tagar Enviro Park (BTEP) which can produce 12MW of RE power.
