MPIA, Shed Some Light on Our PV Industry

The Malaysian Government has set an ambitious target to achieve a higher penetration of Renewable Energy (RE) in the Malaysian energy mix.

We speak to Chin Soo Mau, the President of the Malaysian Photovoltaic Industry Association (MPIA) to discuss the challenges faced by the industry and the opportunities it offers.
