, formerly known as Petronas Gas & New Energy. The company, which was announced back in June, aims to be a one-stop integrated clean energy solutions provider, offering renewable energy, hydrogen power and green mobility services to commercial, industrial and retail customers.
Most pertinent to the end user is the plan to capture a 10% market share in the electric vehicle ecosystem. Gentari is expecting to offer 9,000 public charging points in Malaysia and India by 2026, as part of its goal to deliver 25,000 chargers across the Asia Pacific region by 2030. It has already installed more than 190 charging points in these two countries.
The company has also signed a memorandum of understanding with the Petronas Refinery and Petrochemical Corporation to help the latter add a zero-emissions fleet supported with EV chargers – including the exploration of adding hydrogen fuel cell vehicles to the massive Pengerang Integrated Complex in Johor.
It’s also supporting Petronas’ decarbonisation efforts worldwide through the fitment of a 7.4-megawatt peak rooftop solar panel installation – said to be the largest in Malaysia – and a 4MWp installation in Pengerang. The latter will also house a 40MWp solar installation on the ground that is currently underway, as is the deployment of rooftop solar panels at 60 Petronas fuel stations.
