KUALA LUMPUR: Renewable energy firm Gading Kencana has clinched the Merdeka Award at the 30th Credit Guarantee Corporation Malaysia Bhd (CGC) Awards 2024, recognising its contribution to inclusive and sustainable business practices.
The Merdeka Award, introduced in conjunction with Malaysia’s independence, honours micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) that uplift Bumiputera entrepreneurs and foster strategic partnerships.
Gading Kencana’s recognition highlights its clean energy initiatives in line with the National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR) and 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP).

“As Malaysia moves towards a low-carbon future, we are ready to collaborate with stakeholders who share our vision of sustainable development that empowers people and protects the planet,” he added.
The company is also leading the Community Renewable Energy Aggregation Mechanism, which allows communities to jointly invest in and benefit from solar projects, broadening access to clean energy.
