Malaysia’s Solar Industry Radiates Positive Growth
Malaysia is increasing its usage of renewable energy in tandem with the acceleration of climate change. With efforts by the government to encourage solar installations, the residential solar industry has shown a positive trend and more homeowners are using solar systems. This shows that the country is on the right track in achieving the renewable energy installed capacity target of 70% by 2050.
Malaysian homeowners increasingly turn to solar panels, driven by rising electricity bills and a growing desire for renewable energy solutions. This surging demand reflects a nationwide shift, with the government aiming to add 1,098 MW by 2025 and another 2,414 MW by 2035. This ambitious target aligns with the Malaysia Renewable Energy Roadmap, which envisions renewables powering 31% of the nation’s energy needs by 2025, rising to 40% by 2035. Verdant Solar, committed to being the catalyst for this positive change, offers affordable and efficient solar solutions with flexible financing and reliable installations, making the transition to renewable energy accessible for all Malaysians.
Zeth Lim further highlighted the challenges and misconceptions surrounding solar energy adoption, emphasizing the need for increased education and awareness. “There are still many challenges and misconceptions associated with integrating and adopting solar energy. One major challenge is the initial cost of installing solar panels, which can be prohibitive for some individuals or businesses. There is certainly a need for more education and awareness about the benefits of solar energy to overcome these misconceptions. Verdant Solar has shown readiness to address these issues and bolster the confidence of customers by implementing multifaceted approaches that can educate consumers about the benefits of solar energy and its potential to reduce electricity bills and carbon footprint. With the aim to cover an integrated approach, spanning the residential, corporate, and technological realms, the company seeks to solidify its position in the renewable energy sector and establish itself as a trusted provider of solar solutions.”
