In its endeavour to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in line with the Paris Agreement, Malaysia recently launched the Sustainable Energy Development prospectus at the 28th Conference of the Parties to the UNFCCC (COP28).
The prospectus, developed in collaboration with the Sustainable Energy Development Authority (SEDA), Energy Commission (ST), Malaysian Green Technology and Climate Change Cooperation (MGTC), as well as the national utility, Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB), outlines Malaysia’s plan to transform its energy system into one with a lower carbon footprint.
The launch of Malaysia’s Sustainable Energy Development prospectus signifies our commitment towards energy transition, with plans to accelerate the decarbonisation of energy generation, develop a modern and flexible grid, as well as embrace innovation and empower consumers. With this, we welcome trade, technical, and policy collaboration with global partners in our collective endeavour for a low-carbon energy system and a sustainable future.
- Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad, Malaysia’s Minister of Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change
As COP28 draws to a close, we are excited to witness Malaysia's emphasis on its commitment to climate change on a global stage and to kickstart many more international collaborations towards a just transition.
