Malaysia’s commitment to a low-carbon economy is anchored in the National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR) — a strategic framework guiding the country’s shift towards net zero emissions by 2050.
Objective
To support this national agenda, the National Energy Transition Fund (NETF) was established under the Ministry of Economy to provide critical financing for projects that enable and accelerate the country’s energy transition.
As Malaysia’s leading technology financier, Malaysia Debt Ventures Berhad (MDV) brings over two decades of expertise in supporting high-growth, high-impact sectors. As an implementing agency for NETF, MDV plays a key role in ensuring that funding is deployed effectively to businesses and innovators in the renewable energy and green technology space — enabling them to scale their solutions, attract investments, and contribute meaningfully to the nation’s climate goals.
With a deep understanding of the challenges faced by technology-driven industries, MDV remains committed to bridging financing gaps and empowering local businesses to lead Malaysia’s energy transition.
