        TNB: Powering a Brighter, Greener Future with You    Together, We Can Light the Way

        Individual actions are essential, but a robust infrastructure   TNB remains steadfast in its commitment to supporting the
        is the backbone of a clean energy future. At TNB, we’re   national energy transition. This comprehensive approach
        committed to making this vision a reality for Malaysia.   includes developing a nationwide charging network for
        Let’s explore  how we’re paving the way  for a cleaner, more   electric vehicles, implementing renewable energy programmes
        sustainable tomorrow:                                and smart grid initiatives, and exploring cutting-edge energy
                                                             storage solutions. However, the success of these endeavours
                                                             hinges not only on our commitment but also on collaborative
         Investing in Renewables                             action.
         TNB is committed to significantly increase renewable energy capacity, aiming for 8.3 GW by
         2025. This means actively exploring and integrating solar, wind, and other clean energy   By embracing sustainable practices and actively participating
         sources into the national grid, for a cleaner and more sustainable future.
                                                             in available programmes, we can all become key contributors
                                                             to a cleaner and more secure energy future for Malaysia.
         The Grid Gets Smarter
                                                             Together, we hold the power to make a difference.
         Integrating renewable energy requires a more flexible and intelligent grid infrastructure.
         TNB invests in smart grid technologies like Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI),
         which equips homes and businesses with smart metres, allowing for real-time energy
         consumption data for efficient grid management, and seamless integration of these
         renewable energy sources.

         Expanding Grid Connectivity
         As the clean energy mix grows, the grid needs to adapt. TNB is actively expanding capacity
         and  developing  interconnection  projects,  fostering  cross-border  energy  sharing  and
         enhancing grid flexibility and security


         Energy Storage Solutions
         Renewable energy sources like solar and wind can be variable. Energy storage solutions
         like Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) and Community Energy Storage System
         (CESS) play an important role to manage this variability. Think of it as a giant energy
         bank, storing clean energy when it’s abundant and releasing it when needed. Pioneering
         projects like Elmina City showcase how CESS technology can optimise clean energy use
         in smart townships, paving the way for a sustainable future.
