Saudi Arabia's ACWA Power has signed a memorandum of understanding with Malaysia to develop up to 12.5 gigawatts of renewable energy capacity by 2040, backed by an initial investment of $10 billion.
Saudi Arabia's ACWA Power said on Thursday it had signed a preliminary agreement to develop up to 12.5 gigawatts of renewable energy generating capacity in Malaysia with an initial investment of up to $10 billion.
The renewable energy utility said in a statement it agreed to a memorandum of understanding with the Malaysian Investment Development Authority to explore developing the capacity by 2040.
Malaysia aims for renewable energy to make up 70% of its power mix by 2050.
ACWA Power also signed strategic partnership agreements with several Malaysian companies for potential energy projects, including large-scale water desalination.
"These strategic agreements represent a significant milestone in ACWA Power's expansion in Southeast Asia and reflect our commitment to supporting Malaysia and the broader ASEAN region's energy transition," said ACWA CEO Marco Arcelli in the statement.
