It has been reported that this project is the first PPA signed by Shizen Energy with a Japanese company based in Malaysia.

According to the company, the “plant’s use of clean, competitive renewable energy is expected to reduce electricity costs while also reducing CO₂ emissions by 11,938 tons over the 20-year term of the contract,” the statement reads.

Kazuo Maenishi, Managing Director of Hokto Malaysia was quoted, “As part of our efforts to become “eco-friendly,” we recognize climate change and environmental pollution as business risks and have been working to reduce CO₂ emissions in order to protect the global environment. We are pleased that the installation of solar panels in Malaysia will contribute to the preservation of the global environment through the use of renewable energy.”

Similarly, Akemi Shimizu, Corporate PPA Business Development Manager of Shizen Energy commented, “We are very pleased to be able to contribute to HOKUTO’s decarbonization efforts. We look forward to utilizing our past expertise in the renewable energy industry to contribute to further decarbonization in Malaysia.”
