KUALA LUMPUR: UEM Group Bhd through its wholly-owned subsidiary and green industry arm, UEM Lestra Bhd along with HEXA Renewables Malaysia Sdn Bhd and ITRAMAS Corporation Sdn Bhd announced that they have made significant strides in developing the one-gigawatt (1GW) hybrid solar power plant, a project that was first announced by the Government in July 2023.

The 1GW project is a key flagship venture under the National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR) and on July 27, last year, the three companies signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for UEM Group to consider participating through multiple potential roles including collaborating on project development, financing (including equity investments) and commercialisation (including offtake of green electricity).
