A Strategic Collaboration for a Lower-Carbon Future
The global energy transition is no longer a future ambition — it is happening now.
At Progressture Solar, we are proud to have partnered with Petron Malaysia in delivering a commercial solar photovoltaic (PV) system designed to support operational efficiency, energy cost optimisation, and carbon reduction.
Working with a leading downstream oil company such as Petron demonstrates one thing clearly: even traditional energy players are actively embracing renewable solutions.

Why Energy Companies Are Turning to Solar
Energy companies today face three major pressures:
Rising electricity costs
Carbon reduction commitments
ESG compliance expectations from investors and stakeholders
Solar PV offers an immediate and practical solution.
For companies with high daytime energy consumption — especially industrial facilities and fuel terminals — rooftop solar allows them to:
✔ Reduce grid dependency
✔ Lower operational expenditure (OPEX)
✔ Improve ESG reporting
✔ Strengthen long-term energy resilience
The Petron project reflects this broader industry shift.
Project Overview
Progressture Solar was appointed to deliver a complete Engineering, Procurement, Construction, and Commissioning (EPCC) scope.
Our responsibilities included:
Site feasibility study and technical assessment
System design and optimisation
Supply of high-performance solar modules and inverters
Structural and electrical integration
Installation and testing
Commissioning and grid compliance
Every industrial site has unique operational constraints. Safety, structural loading, and uninterrupted operations were critical considerations throughout execution.
Our team worked closely with Petron’s engineering and operations team to ensure:
• Minimal disruption to daily operations
• Compliance with stringent safety standards
• Optimised system performance• Long-term reliability
Delivering Industrial-Grade Solar Systems
Unlike residential systems, commercial and industrial solar projects require:
Detailed rooftop structural analysis (RSA)
Electrical load profiling
Maximum demand analysis
Protection system coordination
Compliance with utility interconnection standards
At Progressture Solar, our strength lies in combining engineering precision with financial optimisation.
We do not just install panels.
We design systems that maximise:
Internal Rate of Return (IRR)
Payback period optimisation
Lifetime energy yield
Asset durability
For corporations, solar is not just about sustainability — it is a capital allocation decision.
And it must make financial sense.
Supporting Malaysia’s Decarbonisation Agenda
Malaysia has committed to increasing renewable energy penetration in the national generation mix.
Corporate participation is essential to achieving this target.
By adopting on-site solar, companies like Petron contribute directly to:
Reduced Scope 2 emissions
Lower carbon intensity
National renewable energy targets
Improved sustainability disclosures
This project represents more than a rooftop installation.
It represents alignment between industrial growth and environmental responsibility.
Why Leading Corporates Choose Progressture Solar
Our experience spans:
Commercial & Industrial (C&I) rooftop systems
Large-scale solar (LSS) developments
Utility-scale EPCC projects
Cross-border renewable energy execution
What differentiates us:
✔ End-to-end EPCC capability
✔ Strong engineering background
✔ Financial modelling expertise
✔ Safety-first execution culture
✔ Long-term O&M support
We approach every project as a long-term energy infrastructure asset — not just an installation.
Looking Ahead
The collaboration with Petron reflects a growing trend:
Energy companies are not being replaced by renewables — they are integrating them.
As Malaysia moves toward a lower-carbon economy, Progressture Solar remains committed to delivering:
Bankable solar solutions
Industrial-grade engineering
Sustainable energy partnerships
If your organisation is exploring solar as part of its decarbonisation strategy, our team is ready to support you from feasibility study to long-term operations.
