GoodWe has entered into partnership with Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) to implement a 200 kWh commercial and industrial (C&I) energy storage project in Malaysia.
GoodWe is a global provider of solar inverters and energy solutions while UiTM is Malaysia’s largest comprehensive university. Both have set a mutual goal of advancing the renewable energy development in the region.
According to the company, the new project is based at UiTM’s Penang campus. It includes two energy storage systems.
The project is expected to ensure a reliable energy supply and reduce electricity bills and meet research purposes related to VPP, the university said.
So far, UiTM has ownership of a 50 MW and a 25 MW large-scale solar power plant and a 9.6 MW PV rooftop across seven campuses.
Meanwhile, James Hou, GoodWe Sales Head in APAC, was quoted in a statement, “As a top manufacturer for solar energy storage systems, GoodWe strives to achieve the highest energy conversion rate to ensure our customers maximize their clean energy benefits. UiTM represents the first of our many upcoming green projects in the region.”
The project further wants to propel the green energy movement forward.
Mohd Najib Mohd Hussain, an associate fellow at UiTM’s Solar Research Institute (SRI), remarked, “I am impressed by GoodWe’s exceptional commitment and proactive customer service. Their solutions, with easy installation and user-friendly features managed through their app, are highly competitive.”
