The Ministry of Energy Transition and Water Transformation (PETRA), through the Sustainable Energy Development Authority Malaysia (SEDA Malaysia), is offering a new 250MW Feed-in Tariff (FiT) quota for 2027.
The programme is expected to generate RM3 billion in investment and create more than 5,000 direct and indirect jobs.
The new quota covers 30MW for biogas, 120MW for biomass and 100MW for small hydropower projects in Peninsular Malaysia and the Federal Territory of Labuan.
Eligible renewable energy developers can apply through online e-bidding via the SEDA Malaysia website from Feb 3, 2027 to March 24, 2027.
PETRA said the new FiT offering is also expected to involve RM510 million in purchases of locally installed engine gas and boiler equipment, supporting domestic businesses involved in renewable energy projects.
The approved projects are expected to begin generating and supplying green electricity as early as 2030.
The initiative forms part of the government’s efforts to increase the share of renewable energy in the country’s electricity supply mix to 70% by 2050.
Since the FiT programme was introduced in 2011, a total of 1,660.50MW in quotas has been approved across all renewable energy sources, involving 9,658 projects nationwide.
Further details on the application process, including briefing sessions for bidders and e-bidding submission dates, are available through SEDA Malaysia.
