Power Ledger Head of BD & Sales Vinod Tiwari shaking hands with SEDA CEO Dr Sanjayan Velautham, and Minister of Energy, Science, Technology, Environment and Climate Change Yb Yeo Bee Yin.

Power Ledger, the developer of a blockchain-enabled energy trading platform to make markets more efficient, announced today it has partnered with Malaysia’s Sustainable Energy Development Authority (SEDA) to launch a pilot trial of its blockchain-backed energy trading platform.

Under the agreement, Power Ledger will demonstrate the ability of its platform to effectively trade surplus solar energy, with SEDA hoping the trial will grow the country’s solar photovoltaic (PV) rooftop market and advance the deployment of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) in Malaysia.

“Power Ledger wants to work with regulators and electricity retailers to make energy markets more efficient. The trial with SEDA provides a real opportunity to tailor our platform to suit the needs of the Malaysian energy market. Advancements in renewable energy technologies, coupled with regulatory changes, are starting to unlock new opportunities for the energy sector. Power Ledger has partnered with a number of renowned energy companies to improve the efficiency and transparency of energy markets globally.”
– Power Ledger co-founder and chairman Dr. Jemma Green

Power Ledger’s technology was the first of its kind in the South East Asia energy market and has active projects in countries including Thailand, Japan, the United States, and Australia.

Malaysia

Ongoing electricity regulatory changes in Malaysia mean in the near future, surplus energy generated by buildings with solar photovoltaic (PV) can trade green energy between buyers and sellers, through the grid to empower consumers with electricity choices.

Power Ledger’s platform enables consumers to choose whether they wish to purchase clean, renewable energy or power from fossil fuels to promote and support the uptake of renewable energy in Malaysia.

“Malaysia has more than four million buildings with rooftop solar potential in Peninsular Malaysia. The trial with Power Ledger will give SEDA better insights into consumer preferences and price model testing. We are working on a number of options to scale-up renewable energy growth in our Renewable Energy Transition Roadmap (RETR) 2035. SEDA’s partnership with Power Ledger is a great opportunity to testbed energy trading among prosumers and consumers using blockchain technology and understand surplus energy trading in Malaysia’s energy marketplace.”
– SEDA CEO Ir. Dr Sanjayan Velautham

Malaysia is well endowed with huge solar energy potential and one of the key strategies to achieve its renewable energy target of 20 percent by 2025 will be to leverage the high rooftop space available. P2P energy trading will make the grid relevant again through the front-of-the-meter (FTM) business opportunities available to solar PV such as virtual net metering.
