YTL PowerSeraya to invest $5m to expand its solar power output

Capacity at Pulau Seraya facility to rise from IMWp to 5MWp by next September
YTL PowerSeraya (YTLPS) will invest more than $5 million to expand the amount of solar power generated at its Pulau Seraya Power Station to 5MWp (megawattpeak) by September 2024, up from the existing IMWp.
The increased capacity, which can produce a monthly average of 417 megawatt-hour under optimal conditions, will be able to support more than 1,000 four-room Housing Board flats for a month.
This will bring YTLPS' overall investment outlay in solar power to well above $6 million.
Installation of the additional solar panels will start from October, although this has been part of the group's strategic vision since the inception of its solar-power venture in 2019, said Mr Lim Han Kwang, group head of retail, regulation and renewables at YTLPS.
