Is the solar panel industry a growth sector in Malaysia this year?

G Gemini: Yes, the solar panel industry is expected to be a strong growth sector in Malaysia in 2024 and beyond. Here are some of the factors driving this growth:

Government support: The Malaysian government has ambitious renewable energy targets and has implemented various policies to support the solar industry, such as the Net Energy Metering (NEM) program and the Large Scale Solar (LSS) program. These programs provide financial incentives for businesses and individuals to install solar panels.

Declining solar panel costs: The cost of solar panels has been declining steadily over the past few years, making them more affordable for businesses and individuals.

Increasing awareness of climate change: Malaysians are becoming increasingly aware of the need to address climate change, and solar energy is seen as a clean and sustainable alternative to fossil fuels.

Strong economic growth: Malaysia's economy is expected to grow by around 4% in 2024, which will boost demand for energy. Solar energy can help to meet this demand in a sustainable way.

Here are some of the specific predictions for the growth of the solar panel industry in Malaysia:

Mordor Intelligence predicts that the Malaysian solar energy market will grow at a CAGR of more than 9% during the period 2023-2028.

HLIB Research expects the renewable energy industry in Malaysia to see strong growth in 2024, driven by the Corporate Green Power Programme (CGPP), which is expected to generate between RM2.7 billion to RM3 billion of EPCC contract flows.

Overall, the outlook for the solar panel industry in Malaysia is very positive. The government's support, declining costs, and increasing awareness of climate change are all factors that are likely to drive growth in the sector in the coming years.

Locally, MFCB and Pekat Bhd have established a 55:45 joint venture (JV) called MFP Solar Sdn Bhd to undertake solar projects of up to 10MW in Malaysia, believed to give far better investment returns of 10% to 12%. MFP Solar would be an engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning contractor to undertake the installation of solar power projects on rooftops of industrial and commercial buildings under various models, namely build–operate–transfer, outright sale or leasing. MFCB would ride on Pekat Teknologi’s vast experience in the solar industry. For a start, the JV intends to tap multinational companies for opportunities.

In 2022, MPF-Pekat installed solar PV on 16 sewage plants of IWK (project value RM18.1 million of estimated energy generation: 8 GWh per annum).

The cabinet has just approved the expansion plans for the Penang airport (RM 1B).

Ten years ago in 2014, Tan Sri Bashir installed solar power on KLIA that generated 26MW of energy that saved more than RM 2M of energy costs per year...plus other green technology that put KLIA and KLIA2 the most energy-efficient airport in Malaysia.

Today, let's watch how energy-efficient is the new Airports(MAHB) team...knowing that...
Penang is a major industrial hub, contributing significantly to the national economy and relying solely on an aging power plant (Sultan Abdul Halim power station) that has faced several power outages. There are major concerns on its reliability and potential power disruptions....

The future energy sufficiency of Penang for its factories and International airport depends on the successful implementation of these solutions and the ability to meet the ever-increasing demand of green energy....

Max2838, valuation is just a number. To make big money, ideally is to buy a company at low valuation and hold it till it reaches high valuation then only sell. For example, PE upgrade from 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 30x and beyond. This is how we can compound wealth and make big money.

Silicon Metal: The Backbone of Modern Technology and Sustainability
Chemical And Material | 28th October 2024

Silicon Metal: The Backbone of Modern Technology and Sustainability
Introduction: Top Silicon Metal Trends

Silicon metal, a critical industrial material, serves as a fundamental building block in a variety of applications, ranging from electronics to solar energy. Comprising more than 25% of the Earth’s crust, silicon is a versatile element that, when refined, becomes a key player in the production of semiconductors, alloys, and renewable energy technologies. With the growing demand for electronic devices and the shift towards sustainable energy sources, the Silicon Metal Market is witnessing significant transformations. We examine the most recent developments that are influencing the sector and spurring innovation here.

1. Surge in Demand for Renewable Energy Solutions

The global push for renewable energy sources has significantly boosted the demand for silicon metal, particularly in solar photovoltaic (PV) cells. Silicon is the primary material used in solar panels, and with governments and corporations investing heavily in clean energy initiatives, the market for silicon metal is set to expand. This trend is reinforced by the increasing adoption of solar energy to combat climate change and reduce carbon footprints.

2. Advancements in Semiconductor Technologies

The semiconductor industry relies on silicon metal and is growing rapidly due to the growth of artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and 5G technology. Innovations in semiconductor design and manufacturing processes are driving the demand for high-quality silicon wafers. As electronic devices become more powerful and compact, the need for advanced silicon materials that can withstand higher temperatures and offer improved performance is paramount.

3. Rise of Sustainable Production Practices

As sustainability becomes a core focus for industries worldwide, the silicon metal sector is not lagging. Manufacturers are increasingly adopting eco-friendly practices in the extraction and production of silicon. This includes using renewable energy sources in smelting processes and developing methods to recycle silicon from end-of-life products. The goal is to reduce the carbon footprint associated with silicon production and align with global sustainability targets.

4. Growing Applications in Electric Vehicles (EVs)

The rise of electric vehicles is creating a new market for silicon metal. As EV manufacturers seek to improve battery efficiency and performance, silicon is emerging as a key material in battery technology. In contrast to conventional graphite anodes, silicon-based anodes are renowned for having a high energy density and capacity. This trend is leading to increased collaboration between silicon metal producers and battery manufacturers to develop innovative solutions that enhance the performance of EV batteries.

5. Expanding Use in Construction and Infrastructure

Silicon metal is becoming increasingly important in construction, enhancing the properties of materials like concrete and steel. Silica fume, a byproduct of silicon metal, boosts concrete's durability and strength, making it ideal for infrastructure projects. With rising urbanization and demand for sustainable materials, silicon metal's role in creating resilient, energy-efficient structures is set to grow.

Conclusion

Silicon metal stands at the forefront of several key trends that are shaping the future of technology, energy, and sustainability. From its vital role in renewable energy solutions and semiconductor technologies to its expanding applications in electric vehicles and construction, silicon metal is proving to be an essential material for modern society. As industries adapt to the demands of a changing world, the silicon metal market will continue to evolve, driving innovations that promote efficiency, sustainability, and performance. With the increasing focus on green practices and advanced technologies, the future of silicon metal looks promising, positioning it as a critical resource for the advancements of tomorrow.
