  "account": "KUALA LUMPUR - Mah Sing Group Bhd and Kinergy Advancement Bhd are considering power infrastructure solutions for potential data centre projects in Southville City, Bangi, and Meridin East, Pasir Gudang. The two companies inked a non-binding and non-exclusive collaboration term sheet outlining their joint interest.\n\nMah Sing, through its wholly-owned unit Garden Vista Development Sdn Bhd, will collaborate with Kinergy to develop and plan the power supply infrastructure. Kinergy will provide technical advice and preliminary assessments on the feasibility of captive power plants and power supply arrangements under a corporate renewable energy supply scheme.\n\nThe collaboration may involve analyzing projected power needs, technology and plant sizing, site suitability, regulatory aspects, and potential project structures. Mah Sing highlighted the benefits of early planning for energy infrastructure, emphasizing how early planning enhances a data center's readiness, scalability, and long-term competitiveness.\n\nMah Sing's CEO Datuk Voon Tin Yow noted that the term sheet allows both parties to evaluate opportunities together while maintaining flexibility as projects progress. Kinergy's Executive Deputy Chairman and Group Managing Director, Datuk Dr Lai Keng Onn, expressed confidence that his company's expertise in electrical engineering, power infrastructure, and generation could support Mah Sing's data centre plans. This partnership could offer greater flexibility in meeting high and consistent power demand and facilitate the integration of renewable energy sources.",
