Malaysia's Data Centre Boom Is Creating New Opportunities for Solar + BESS
Date:2026-11-10
Malaysia-based Northern Solar Holdings Berhad has secured two major solar-plus-battery energy storage (BESS) contracts, with a combined solar capacity of 189 MWac, to supply renewable electricity to two data centres in Malaysia.
The two projects include:
Project 1: 100 MWac solar capacity integrated with BESS, serving a data centre developed by a Malaysian property and data centre infrastructure company.
Project 2: 89 MWac solar capacity integrated with BESS, serving a Malaysian subsidiary of a Singapore-based data centre operator.
Together, the two data centres are expected to consume nearly 500 million kWh of electricity annually.
Both projects will be implemented under Malaysia's Corporate Renewable Energy Supply Scheme (CRESS), highlighting the growing role of renewable energy and battery storage in meeting the increasing power demands of data centres.
As Southeast Asia's data centre sector continues to expand, the demand for reliable, sustainable and flexible energy solutions is creating new opportunities for solar, BESS, energy management and power infrastructure companies.
