  "summary": "Malakoff Corp Bhd's subsidiary GB3 Sdn Bhd has successfully restarted its 429MW open cycle gas turbine power plant in Lumut, Perak, on October 7, almost three months ahead of the scheduled commercial operation date. This milestone, achieved under a new power purchase agreement (PPA) with Tenaga Nasional Bhd (TNB), comes as part of Malakoff's strategy to meet the growing demand for reliable power in Malaysia. The plant's early return will contribute to the country's energy security by providing an additional 429MW of generation capacity.",
