Samaiden secures RM45m EPCC contract for LSS5 solar project in Kedah
SAMAIDEN Group Bhd, via its wholly owned unit Samaiden Sdn Bhd, has clinched a RM45 million engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning (EPCC) contract from PAXS Renewable Sdn Bhd for a 9.99MWac large-scale solar power plant in Kedah.
In a Bursa Malaysia filing today, Samaiden said the project — approved under the Large Scale Solar 5 (LSS5) programme by the Energy Commission in December 2024 — officially commenced on Monday and is expected to achieve commercial operation by July 12, 2027.
Group MD Datuk Chow Pui Hee said the win reaffirms Samaiden's standing as a trusted solar EPCC partner and highlights its ongoing support for Malaysia's renewable energy agenda.
The group also reiterated its strategic focus on expanding its renewable energy portfolio and securing more clean energy opportunities across the country and the region. — TMR
