Malakoff Corporation Bhd’s wholly owned subsidiary, Malakoff Technical Solutions Sdn Bhd (MTSSB), has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with TNB Repair and Maintenance Sdn Bhd (TNB REMACO), a subsidiary of TNB Power Generation Sdn Bhd under Tenaga Nasional Bhd.
The partnership aims to explore opportunities in maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) services for power plants, while also focusing on workforce training and competency development initiatives.
According to Malakoff, the collaboration will seek to identify potential third-party MRO projects, enabling both parties to leverage their combined technical expertise and industry networks beyond their existing operations.
Malakoff Group Chief Executive Officer Syahrunizam Samsudin said the partnership reflects a shared commitment to enhancing power plant reliability through effective maintenance, skilled talent and continuous improvement.
“Both organisations bring decades of experience in Malaysia’s power sector. Through this collaboration, we are creating a platform to exchange knowledge, strengthen capabilities and elevate maintenance and operational standards across the industry,” he said.
Syahrunizam added that MTSSB and TNB REMACO are well-positioned to jointly pursue third-party MRO opportunities, creating new growth avenues beyond their current asset portfolios.
He noted that the collaboration aligns with Malakoff’s strategy to optimise the performance of its existing thermal power assets while nurturing the next generation of engineering and technical professionals.
“As electricity demand continues to grow and energy security becomes increasingly important, strengthening operational reliability and workforce capability remains a key priority,” he said.
Moving forward, Malakoff said it will continue to focus on enhancing operational performance across its energy and environmental solutions businesses, supported by its long-term commitment to delivering reliable energy and sustainable services.
