PETALING JAYA: Samaiden Group Bhd, through its subsidiaries, has secured three bio-energy project awards under the Sustainable Energy Development Authority Malaysia’s 2025 e-bidding mechanism.

In a statement, the renewable energy (RE) specialist said these projects, located in Johor, Terengganu, and Kelantan, will add over 18 megawatts of biomass and biogas capacity to Samaiden’s portfolio, further strengthening its position in Malaysia’s RE sector.

“The approved projects include two biomass power plants located in Tangkak, Johor and Kemaman, Terengganu respectively, and a biogas power plant in Bachok, Kelantan.

“Each project was awarded a 21-year feed-in tariff approval and are expected to begin commissioning from the second half of 2028.”

In the same statement, group managing director Datuk Chow Pui Hee said the awards mark a significant step forward in expanding its renewable energy portfolio beyond solar into biomass and biogas.

“The diversification strengthens our long-term earnings visibility, supports Malaysia’s decarbonisation agenda and positions Samaiden as a comprehensive clean energy solution provider.”
