Solar Energy Storage Partnerships
EVE Energy is Bringing Clean Solar Power to KLIA
Colin Smith — February 11, 2026EVE Energy has secured a contract to deploy a 10 MW ground‑mounted solar PV system paired with a 36 MWh battery energy storage system at Kuala Lumpur International Airport. The project will use EVE’s 628 Ah lithium iron phosphate cells in an AC/DC integrated architecture and is described as the company’s first large‑format energy storage deployment in Malaysia. The contract signing was publicly announced with government representation and positions the system as a solar‑plus‑storage installation intended to support airport operations and local grid services.
The deployment is presented as supporting Malaysia’s decarbonization and resilience objectives by providing on‑site firming of intermittent solar generation and potential ancillary services to the grid. EVE and partners emphasize the project as an entry into critical infrastructure markets and as a demonstration of higher capacity cell formats that can reduce system complexity for large installations. Observers note the project’s relevance for airport energy security and for broader adoption of integrated solar and storage systems in the region.
