Malaysia’s clean energy solutions provider Solarvest Holdings Berhad has partnered with Australia’s sustainable real estate firm EXAL Group to bring clean energy infrastructures to EXAL’s architectural developments in Sarawak.
Solarvest said in a statement on Wednesday that this collaboration marks a significant milestone in EXAL’s SÓLCARE sustainability efforts, an ambitious promise designed to improve the quality of life in the communities they have built, alongside their aim of continuing environmental, social and governance (ESG) excellence for the generations to come.
It is noted that as Malaysia drives forward with its National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR) 2030, environmental awareness is reaching new heights.
The country is committed to reducing its economy-wide carbon intensity by 45 percent in 2030 compared to 2005 levels, aiming to have 31 percent of its national installed capacity mix be renewable energy by the second quarter of 2025.
In response to this growing demand for sustainable solutions, EXAL has joined forces with Solarvest to integrate cutting-edge rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) systems and green EV charging infrastructures into their developments.
This collaboration not only strengthens EXAL’s commitment to a more sustainable living lifestyle, but also advances its SÓLCARE sustainability efforts, which aims to reduce carbon footprints and foster a cleaner, greener Malaysia for generations to come.
To this end, EXAL’s partnership with Solarvest marks a major step in adopting renewable energy solutions into modern architecture.
Beyond the high-efficient and durable rooftop solar PV systems, its green EV charging infrastructure is 100 percent powered by clean energy, further supporting the transition to a clean township through e-mobility.
By leveraging Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs), the partnership also enables property owners to validate their commitment to 100 percent renewable energy consumption.
These initiatives not only minimize energy consumption and reduce carbon footprints but also deliver significant cost savings for homeowners.
Additionally, Solarvest’s advanced inverters and monitoring systems provide real- time performance data, empowering end-users to track energy output, charging efficiency, and
environmental benefits.
“As a leader in clean energy infrastructure, we prioritize ESG considerations in every aspect of project construction and development,
“This partnership with EXAL represents our shared commitment to reducing carbon footprints and promoting sustainable living,” said Leon Liew, Executive Director and Group Chief Strategy Officer of Solarvest.
He said the firm is proud to be part of the sustainability property development, driving Malaysia’s clean energy transition for a greener environment for the next generations.
Furthering its commitment to sustainability, EXAL has also signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with GreenRE, Malaysia’s premier green certification body.
GreenRE focuses on enhancing energy and water efficiency, reducing carbon footprints, and prioritizing occupant well-being—ensuring EXAL’s projects adhere to internationally recognized green building standards.
GreenRE-certified homes in Malaysia are up to 40 percent more energy-efficient than conventional homes, reducing environmental pollution by lowering reliance on fossil fuel-generated electricity while also enhancing water efficiency and using eco-friendly materials to minimize their carbon footprint.
With GreenRE certification, properties can achieve up to 50 percent reductions in energy consumption and significantly lower operational costs, boosting their environmental value and market appeal for developers and homeowners alike.
“Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. This partnership with Solarvest and our commitment to GreenRE certification reflects our vision for a future where sustainable living is accessible, practical, and impactful,
“Together, we are redefining what modern, sustainable real estate looks like in Malaysia,” shared Albert Ko, Managing Director of EXAL Malaysia.
By weaving Solarvest’s clean energy expertise into its developments and aligning with GreenRE’s rigorous standards, EXAL said the firm is setting a new standard for sustainable real estate in Sarawak.
These initiatives are not just about environmental responsibility; they also make economic sense by lowering energy bills and enhancing long-term operational efficiency, said the statement.
