Malaysia unveils RM4.3 billion renewable energy pipeline as ISES 2026 opens

Malaysia has unveiled a RM4.3 billion renewable energy investment pipeline and launched a 10-year energy efficiency strategy at the opening of the 7th International Sustainable Energy Summit (ISES) 2026. The initiatives were announced as regional energy policymakers, industry leaders, and experts gathered at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre for the two-day summit, which aims to accelerate ASEAN’s transition towards a low-carbon energy system.

Key developments at the summit include the launch of the National Energy Efficiency Policy and Action Plan 2026–2035 (NEEAP 2.0) and the approval of 42 Feed-in Tariff (FiT) projects with a combined net export capacity of 331.36 megawatts. These projects are expected to generate about RM4.3 billion in private investment and create approximately 7,738 indirect employment opportunities across Malaysia’s energy sector.
