The establishment of the Power & Energy Series is in line with MESTECC’s energy efficiency and renewable energy initiatives. Malaysia has huge potential in renewable energy resources, especially with the new roadmap for energy transition known as the Renewable Energy Transition Roadmap (RETR) 2035. 

In this regard, the Power & Energy Series creates a good platform to explore the possible strategies and action plan to support the rapid growth of the industry, especially with efforts from private entities to embark on strategies to produce more renewable energy. Industry players will also be able to keep up-to-date with the latest innovation and technology at the event.
