Get QuoteFrom a 50-bird kampung egg shed in Kedah to a 200,000-ton palm mill in Sarawak — agriculture is Malaysia's hidden energy hog. We design solar PV, battery storage, and solar irrigation pumps for the full agribusiness chain. Cut diesel 50–85%, cut TNB 30–60%, and qualify for GITA + MyHIJAU tax allowances.

Capex allowance eligible
Each sub-sector has different load profiles, roof types, and grid access realities. We engineer for all of them.
Leong Hup, QL, Lay Hong, CAB Cakaran, kampung farms
Ventilation fans, exhaust systems, cooling pads, LED grow lighting, and cold storage all run during peak sun hours. A 100-house broiler farm typically runs 300–500 kWp. We design solar to cover 60–80% of your total site consumption.
Sime Darby, FGV, IOI, KLK, Genting Plantations, United Plantations
Mill warehouse roofs and plantation HQ buildings can host 1–10 MWp of grid-tied solar. NEM 3.0 and ATAP eligible — export surplus to TNB at eSAN rates. CSRD-driven GLC groups need green energy data for Bursa sustainability disclosures.
Mowi, GST, Sabah/Sarawak coastal, freshwater tilapia ponds
Aerators, paddlewheels, and water pumps are the biggest loads on fish farms. Off-grid sites in Sabah and Sarawak pay RM 1.20–2.00/kWh via diesel genset. Solar + LiFePO4 battery eliminates that cost — aerators run 24/7 from battery overnight.
PERNAMA dairies, Pahang/Johor cattle operations
Milking machines, cold storage chillers, feed processing, and water pumps run continuously. Solar covers daytime loads directly; battery bridges the night cycle. GITA allowance applies to incorporated dairy operations.
Camerons, Fraser's Hill, Genting Highlands, hydroponic operators
LED grow lights, climate control fans, CO₂ enrichment systems, and irrigation pumps run 12–18 hours a day. On-site solar with battery storage stabilises voltage and eliminates TNB demand charges on large greenhouse blocks.
Rice drying mills, fruit packing houses, palm kernel crushers
Drying mills run large motors and fans during the day — exactly when solar peaks. Cold storage compressors run 24/7 — battery covers nights. Paddy drying mills in Kedah and Perlis can host 200–500 kWp on wide, low-pitch roofs.
The answer depends on your TNB connection status, load profile, and whether you're in Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah, or Sarawak.
For farms with no TNB connection or unreliable grid supply — common in Sabah, Sarawak, and remote peninsular estates. A solar + LiFePO4 system replaces the diesel genset entirely: panels charge the battery bank during daylight; the battery powers pumps, aerators, and lighting through the night. 70–95% diesel offset. Typical payback 2–4 years depending on diesel price exposure.
For farms and mills connected to TNB. Solar panels feed loads directly during the day, slashing your kWh bill. Surplus exports back to grid at eSAN rate under NEM 3.0 or ATAP. Palm oil mill rooftops averaging 10,000 m2 can host 1–5 MWp. Grid-tied systems need SEDA/TNB metering and MyHIJAU documentation review.
Zero-grid — no TNB connection needed at the pump site
Solar-powered submersible and surface pumps for irrigation channels, fishpond aeration, plantation water tanks, and livestock watering points. Panels power the pump directly during daylight — no battery required for pure daytime irrigation cycles. Add a small LiFePO4 battery bank for dusk-to-dawn aeration on fish ponds.

Available from RM 12,000 for a 1HP solar pump set (supply + install). Scales to 50HP+ for plantation water towers. Suitable for paddy field irrigation, palm estate water supply, and aquaculture aeration in zero-grid locations.
Malaysian agribusiness operators have access to some of the most generous green energy incentives in ASEAN.
60% of qualifying capital expenditure offset against statutory income. For incorporated agribusiness entities investing in solar PV assets. Claim via MIDA. Applies to both on-grid and off-grid systems.
Solar installations certified under MyHIJAU carry additional green procurement value. Supports ESG disclosure, CSRD reporting for GLC-linked plantation groups, and Bursa sustainability statements.
Agrobank's green loan facility offers rates from 3.5% p.a. for agribusiness operators investing in renewable energy. Eligible for registered farm operators (KPDN/MAFI/MOA). We prepare the energy audit document required for loan application.
Bumiputera agri-entrepreneurs registered under MARA or TEKUN may access capital grants and soft loans for green technology adoption. We assist with site assessment reports and system proposals formatted for grant committees.
From Bursa-listed plantation GLCs to MAFI-registered family farms.
