PETALING JAYA: Tough economic times are the best time for companies or individuals to invest in solar photovoltaic systems, says the Sustainable Energy Development Authority (Seda). “A lot of companies are aligning their direction towards sustainability,” Ibrahim said during a webinar yesterday that discussed solar power as a renewable source of energy in Malaysia. “This is because there is a strong push from the government to increase renewable energy in the country’s power capacity mix to 31% by 2025 and 40% by 2035,” she said. “Solar power has become more affordable and accessible and is a reliable source of renewable energy in Southeast Asia. “I am sure there will be huge interest in terms of not just producing solar, but also recycling,” Wong said.
