“Our goal is to not only meet the current needs but also to develop forward-looking strategies that ensure a stable and sustainable energy supply beyond solar photovoltaic .”l Renewable energy expansion: Increasing access to renewable energy sources, such as solar PV, and exploring other viable options like biomass and biogas; these alternative energy sources will play a critical role in diversifying the energy mix and enhancing sustainability.
Nevertheless, for long-term global energy security, Mahadhir says nuclear energy must be considered as a viable alternative; a consideration relevant for Malaysia following the implementation of the National Energy Transition Roadmap, which includes phasing out coal as a baseload fuel and replacing it with natural gas.
When it comes to water, Mahadhir says the challenge of ensuring a reliable water supply for data centres requires a similar strategic approach to that of electricity, as it is essential to establish a sustainable system that allows water supply agencies to generate adequate revenue from industrial-scale water usage.
“Although these solutions may increase water costs for industrial users, they will ultimately lead to a more robust and sustainable water supply ecosystem, benefiting all stakeholders in the long term.”
