KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia is set to transition away from coal power with coal-fired generation being gradually phased out and no new coal plants in the pipeline, said Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof.
Fadillah, who is also Energy Transition and Water Transformation Minister, said the effort is in line with the nation’s commitment to transition towards a lower carbon energy system, moving away from fossil fuels and embracing cleaner and sustainable energy alternatives.
