Malaysia’s clean energy transition will define the country’s competitiveness for the next 50 years, says Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof.
The Deputy Prime Minister said that as the South-East Asia region now drives more than half of the global energy demand, it is high time to act decisively or face accountability to future generations for its complacency.
Fadillah, who is also Energy Transition and Water Transformation Minister, said that by 2030, the region’s electricity consumption would equal that of Japan and South Korea combined.
He said this in his speech during the launch of Race to Zero at the Clean Energy Transition Asia Summit 2025 held yesterday at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre.
