Jland, Gentari To Integrate Renewable Energy Solutions At Jlg Projects

JOHOR BAHRU, April, 11 (Bernama) -- JLand Group Sdn Bhd (JLG) signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Gentari Sdn Bhd (Gentari) today in a move to integrate renewable energy solutions and green mobility across the former’s residential, commercial and industrial projects.

JLG is a wholly owned subsidiary of Johor Corporation that focuses on the group’s real estate and infrastructure businesses.

JLG and Gentari will undertake feasibility studies on the integration of Gentari’s renewable energy solutions at selected strategic assets and industrial parks under JLG, while the implementation of the green mobility ecosystem in JLG’s selected projects will commence in the third quarter of 2023.

The group’s director of real estate and infrastructure division Datuk Akmal Ahmad said the partnership with Gentari “signifies a milestone in our progress towards decarbonisation initiatives and enhanced capabilities in the renewable energy sector.”

“Through our joint effort with Gentari, we are further equipped to act on our continued commitment to sustainable growth.

“The wide-scale deployment of the green mobility and renewable energy ecosystems across our main developments, namely Menara JLand, KOMTAR JBCC, B5 Johor Street Market, Ibrahim International Business District (IIBD), and Bandar Dato’ Onn (BDO) showcase the depth and extent of the partnership’s value creation potential, considering the number of end-users present throughout our operating entities,” he said in a joint statement here today.

He added that JLG and Gentari would explore potential installations of an electric vehicle (EV) charging hub at Ibrahim Technopolis and renewable energy solutions for JLG’s industrial parks.

 “With the deployment of these renewable energy solutions and green mobility infrastructure at JLG’s assets and industrial parks, we are advancing the clean energy transition through a multi-industry approach,” he continued.

Gentari chief executive officer Sushil Purohit said “with JLand Group, we are able to simultaneously explore initiatives under our core pillars of renewable energy, hydrogen, and green mobility, cutting across the electron value chain to create greater value in the path towards net zero.”
