KUALA LUMPUR: Siemens and Progressture Power Sdn Bhd (Progressture Solar) have teamed up to drive Malaysia's green energy transition agenda forward through digitisation technologies.

The two companies have inked a memorandum of understanding (MoU) at the Smart Nation Expo 2023 to advance converged energy solutions that integrates energy efficiency (EE) and renewable energy (RE).

In a joint statement, it said the partnership aims to engage and collaborate with industry players to deliver seamless energy solutions that enable substantial emissions reduction, and aid businesses to adopt sustainable, environmentally conscious business practices.

As enablers of industrial decarbonisation, Siemens and Progressture Solar are simplifying the adoption of renewable energy and energy efficiency through easy and accessible ownership models.

The partnership will also encompass technical support, resource sharing, and expertise exchange within the solar and energy market landscape between both companies.

"We are keenly aware of the challenges that businesses face when adopting clean energy solutions and energy-efficient technology, and that is why we are committed to present a wide spectrum of accessible and easy ownership models.

“From zero capex and outright purchase options to flexible leasing solutions, our goal is to ensure accessibility for all, regardless of their energy needs or financial constraints. In doing so, we will help businesses to reduce their energy costs, improve their overall operations and meet their ESG commitments,” Progressture Solar co-founder and chief operating officer Ng Yew Weng said.

Meanwhile, Siemens Malaysia president & CEO Tindaro Danze said: “Siemens is committed to transforming the industry and infrastructure sector in Malaysia through digitalization and automation. These are key levers enabling companies to use energy more efficiently, reduce carbon emissions, and therefore foster a more sustainable industry practice.”
