Here comes the Sun: development of solar energy industry in Malaysia. [Website] (2019)
Abstract
The most prominent of the existing renewable energy programmes would no doubt be the LSS tender which was first introduced by the Energy Commission of Malaysia ("EC") in 2016. The LSS tender is a competitive open bidding process in which the EC invites persons with the relevant industry experience, suitable technical and financial capabilities and related resources to develop, operate and maintain large scale solar photovoltaic ("PV") power plants in Peninsular Malaysia and Sabah. Foreign participation is allowed but is capped at 49% equity interest in the bidding consortium. The third bidding round is expected to open in early 2019 with the total aggregate capacity of 500MW being offered for the round. For reference, the first LSS tender was held in 2016, with capacity packages ranging from 1MWac up to a maximum of 50Mwac, while the second LSS tender was held in 2017, with capacity packages ranging from 1MWac up to a reduced maximum of 30Mwac.
