SHAH ALAM, 11 SEPTEMBER 2025 – Gas Malaysia Berhad (“Gas Malaysia”), a member of MMC Group, has awarded the provision of engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning (“EPCC”) contracts for its Biomethane Purification Plants located in Trong and Air Kuning, in the state of Perak. The EPCC contracts were awarded to MTC Orec Sdn Bhd and Enproserve (M) Sdn Bhd – Malaysian-based companies, underscoring support in empowering local industry and strengthening homegrown capabilities. Scheduled for completion within 13 months, the project marks a significant milestone in expanding Gas Malaysia’s green gas portfolio and advancing Malaysia’s renewable energy agenda through its wholly owned subsidiary, Gas Malaysia Green Ventures Sdn Bhd (“GMGV”).
The Biomethane Purification Plant is designed to process raw biogas by removing impurities and purifying it into cleaner, high-quality biomethane that meets natural gas standards, providing a low-carbon alternative to fossil fuels. After purification, the biomethane will be transported through a virtual pipeline system or tube skids before being injected into its existing Natural Gas Distribution System to supply green gas that benefits industrial and local communities.
“Our commitment to sustainability is matched by our drive to deliver long-term growth for the state and the nation. By awarding local contracts, we are not only progressing a renewable energy project but also creating tangible economic and social value from local job opportunities to sustainable energy and thriving communities,” said Encik Ahmad Hashimi Abdul Manap, President & Group Chief Executive Officer of Gas Malaysia Berhad.
Earlier this year, GMGV has launched Malaysia’s first Centralised Biomethane Injection station in the southern region, offering a centralised approach to inject biomethane into the natural gas grid. Building on this milestone, the development has now been broadened to Perak, enabling greater access to green gas in the northern region.
Encik Ahmad Hashimi added that, “Natural gas remains as an important part of the cleaner energy mix, and biomethane is proven to be a reliable alternative solution while contributing to the nation’s long-term renewable energy aspirations. The strategic effort in the biomethane
project is aligned with the National Energy Transition Roadmap (“NETR”) and reinforces Gas Malaysia’s commitment to support Malaysia’s clean energy transition.”
This notable progress also underscores the Company’s dedication to delivering the aspirations of its GM32 Strategy, a 10-year strategic plan that focused on strengthening Gas Malaysia’s core business, pursuing growth opportunities and accelerating diversification into renewable energy solutions.
In advancing the development of the biomethane business value chain upstream, GMGV will continue to expand the green gas business.
