SHAH ALAM, March 13 — The Pulau Indah Power Plant (PIPP) in Klang, built four years ago, has been in commercial operation since March 1, said Menteri Besar Dato' Seri Amirudin Shari.
He credited the success to the dedication and hard work of the entire PIPP team and Worldwide Holdings Berhad (WHB).
"Alhamdulillah, I received the good news from (WHB Group chief executive officer) Datin Paduka Norazlina Zakaria that PIPP is now in commercial operation.
“At exactly midnight on March 1, 2025, PIPP officially entered its commercial operation phase. Congratulations to the PIPP and WHB teams for their hard work over the past four years," Amirudin said in a Facebook post today.
WHB developed the 1,200-megawatt gas turbine power plant in Pulau Indah for RM3.3 billion in collaboration with the Korea Electric Power Corporation.
He said the commercial operation of PIPP is set to play a key role in advancing Malaysia’s sustainable energy sector.
With this milestone, PIPP is expected to generate RM1.6 billion in revenue next year, further strengthening its impact on the state’s economic and energy landscape.
"Hopefully, this success will bring more benefits to the state and the people," Amirudin said.
