Through this collaboration, ENGIE Services Malaysia and Gamuda Land will partner on the exploration and implementation of solar technologies, energy efficiency, and sustainable transportation solutions in Gamuda Land’s townships.
This comprises the development of rooftop solar installations and green transportation infrastructure for the townships of Gamuda Cove in Kuala Langat, Gamuda Gardens in Rawang, and twentyfive7 in Kota Kemuning, all in Selangor, by 2024.
Thomas Baudlot, CEO Energy Solutions APAC and Country Head, said, “We are excited to partner with Gamuda Land to advance the development of sustainable townships in Malaysia.”
He further said, “This partnership is a testament to how the association between the right partners can help streamline, accelerate, and amplify what is possible in the realm of sustainable development. We look forward to helping Gamuda Land realise the ambitious sustainability targets of their Gamuda Green Plan and to building a better future together.”
The partnership is aligned with Gamuda’s sustainability framework, Gamuda Green Plan, which is built on an Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Framework that charts tangible targets for the company to reduce its carbon emissions intensity by 30 percent by 2025 and by 45 percent by 2030.
Chu Wai Lune, Gamuda Land’s CEO, said, “We designed and planned our townships with a target to achieve at minimum a 30% overall reduction in carbon emission as compared to the business-as-usual design. As such, Gamuda Land is always on the lookout for innovative ideas and methods that can be implemented to increase the sustainability of our townships. This partnership with ENGIE will serve as a springboard for us to pursue a wider scope of energy efficient opportunities that can complement our carbon reduction efforts.”
Gamuda Cove, Gamuda Gardens and twentyfive7 have achieved five, four and three-diamond recognition accordingly in the Low Carbon City Framework Design by the Malaysian Ministry of Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change. Gamuda Cove is the first private township to receive this recognition.
Earlier this year, ENGIE Services Malaysia and Gamuda Land inked their MoU in Kuala Lumpur solidifying their partnership on sustainable development and marking a significant milestone in their commitment to advancing a low-carbon future together.
