VCI Global aims to develop and acquire up to 100 MW of solar photovoltaic (PV) projects across Southeast Asia and Europe within the next five years, generating an estimated $200 million in revenue over 20 years.
The company plans to source at least 70 percent of this capacity from projects in Malaysia, leveraging government programs like the Corporate Renewable Energy Supply Scheme (CRESS).
