The PPA agreement is based on the Group`s successful bid under the LSS Phase 4 (LSS4) tender programme launched by the Energy Commission in March 2021. Aug 27 (Renewables Now) – Malaysian photovoltaic (PV) panel manufacturer Solarvest Holdings Bhd (KLSE: SLVEST) has signed a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Tenaga Nasional Berhad (KLSE: TENAGA) for 50 MW of solar home park projects. “This is a vote of confidence by TNB in the quality and completeness of Gunung Hydropower and GCAP`s preparation to move to the next stage of plant completion and commissioning by December 15, 2025.” Currently, solar power business unit Solarcity Malaysia has already entered into a power purchase agreement for a total of 16.6 MW. G Capital Bhd and its subsidiaries (GCAP Group) have strengthened their position in the renewable energy segment after signing a 21-year Renewable Power Purchase Agreement (REPPA) with Malaysia`s largest electricity supplier, Tenaga Nasional Bhd (TNB). Solar Power Purchase (SEP) is an option for TNB customers to purchase energy using solar panels owned by a third-party investor/asset owner. SEP is a financial agreement in which the investor/owner of the asset owns, operates and maintains the solar photovoltaic (PV) system while the client acts as a “host site” that purchases and consumes the output power of the solar photovoltaic system for a predetermined period of time and sets the energy price with TNB as the contract and settlement agent. Supply Agreement – Renewable Energy (SARE) is a tripartite agreement between a third party investor/owner, TNB (TNBX as settlement agent) and the customer. The agreement describes the contractual years, the price of solar energy (sen/kWh), the commitments and obligations of each party. It is approved by the Malaysian Energy Commission (ST) and the Sustainable Energy Development Authority (SEDA) and announced by Minister YB MESTECC in 2018. The list of investors/owners of third-party assets can be viewed www.seda.gov.my/directory/ 2020-registered-solar-pv-investor-rpvi-directory/. This agreement allows the customer to purchase energy at a lower price than the normal price adopted by TNB, with the possibility of exporting excess energy from the solar PV system to the TNB grid to balance its energy bills. The export option is called Net Energy Metering (NEM).

NEM is a program introduced by the Ministry of Energy to promote Malaysia`s use of renewable energy. To learn more about NEM, read more here. On August 12, the company`s subsidiary, Gunung Hydropower Sdn Bhd, which is 96% owned, signed a REPPA with TNB for a 21-year buyout period (FiT) for electricity produced from its 10-megawatt (MW) mini-hydropower plant in Sungai Perak (Salu). The PPA sets out the obligations of PKSSB and TNB to sell and buy the energy produced by the Facility from TNB for a period of 21 years from the date of commercial operation, in accordance with the agreed terms set out in the PPA. The Facility is expected to be operational in the second half of 2023. KPower Bhd (KPower) announces that it signed a large-scale solar photovoltaic (PPA) power purchase agreement (LSS) with Tenaga Nasional Bhd (TNB) on August 19. GCAP currently has two strong renewable energy assets on its base – mini-hydropower plants through its stake in Perak Hydro Renewable Energy Corporation Sdn Bhd (PHREC) and solar energy projects through the recently completed acquisition of Solarcity Malaysia Sdn Bhd, which will help the group reduce its reliance on the transportation services sector. Subject to unforeseen circumstances, the implementation of this agreement is expected to contribute positively to the Group`s long-term results.

The PPA was signed through its 95% subsidiary PKNP KPower Suria Sdn. Bhd. (PKSSB). PKSSB was established in collaboration with Perbadanan Kemajuan Negeri Pahang as part of the Energy Commission`s tendering programme.

At 4:05 p..m m., GCAP rose 0.5 sen, or 7.3%, to 73.5 sen with 870,900 shares traded, valuing the company at RM236 million – August 19, 2021. The contract is linked to three projects, all of which are winners of the fourth round of Malaysia`s Large Scale Solar Program (LSS), Solarvest said Thursday. This will allow them to sell their production to the Malaysian utility for 21 years.

Mustakim said KPower looks forward to its future as the potential of the renewable energy sector continues to grow in line with the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources` (KeTSA) goal of increasing installed renewable energy (ER) capacity in the country. The group`s chief executive, Mustakim Mat Nun, said the conclusion of the PPA AGREEMENT following the appointment for LSS4 represented another achievement for the group. . “While KeTSA predicts that installed renewable capacity will increase from the current 7,995 megawatts (MW) to 18,000 MW by 2035, the focus will be increasingly on the Malaysian peninsula, which accounts for 80 percent of Malaysia`s electricity demand,” he predicted. “This is based on the FiT rate of 28.98 Sen per kilowatt hour and the estimated annual production of 68 gigawatt hours of electricity to be produced from the plant,” he added. . “We are proud of another great achievement by signing the REPPA with TNB four months before the December 15 deadline,” commented Tan Sri Dr Ali Hamsa, Executive Director of GCAP. KPOWER Bhd can expect 21 years of stable revenue and cash flow from the commercial operating date (COD) of the 50MWa.c.
