KUCHING: InvestSarawak and TOYO Engineering Corporation has inked a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in a move to advance the Sarawak government’s energy transition agenda.

The strategic collaboration aims to help TOYO explore and facilitate potential investment projects in Sarawak in alignment to the company’s energy transition strategies.

In addition, the MoU outlines the commitment of both parties to establish a cooperative framework that will foster collaboration on potential energy projects critical to the Sarawak government’s energy transition initiatives.

TOYO has expressed its readiness to assist in the development of value chain planning services essential for realising these initiatives.

Such initiatives include developing green hydrogen projects, carbon capture and storage (CCS), waste-to-energy projects that convert organic waste materials into energy, energy storage solutions such as battery storage or pumped hydro storage, and smart grid technology to enhance the efficiency and reliability of the electrical grid.

The partnership is expected to not only support the transition to renewable energy in Sarawak but also stimulate local employment and technological development, marking a significant milestone in the region’s economic landscape.
