KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 7 (Bernama) -- The Sarawak government has approved Zecon Bhd’s application for an electricity license to generate solar power to supply electricity under the Sarawak Electricity Ordinance at Kota Petra Green Technology Park (KPGTP) in Kuching.

In a filing with Bursa Malaysia today, Zecon said the license shall be for 30 years, effective Feb 5, 2025, with an annual fee of RM300,000.
