Azmi & Associates Facilitates TH Plantations Berhad's Sustainable Joint Venture with UEM Lestra Berhad

Azmi & Associates is proud to have assisted TH Plantations Berhad, the plantation arm of Lembaga Tabung Haji, in forming a joint venture with UEM Lestra Berhad, a wholly owned unit of UEM Group.

This collaboration aims to develop a 1.2-megawatt (MW) biogas power plant in Kluang, Johor. The joint venture was established between TH Plantations’ subsidiary, THP Applications & Services Sdn Bhd, and UEM Lestra’s subsidiary, Cenergi RE Sdn Bhd.

The biogas power plant, set to commence operations in 2026, will generate enough electricity to power up to 1,500 homes annually. It is also projected to prevent 20,000 tonnes of carbon emissions each year, equivalent to the emissions from 4,760 cars. This project aligns with TH Plantations’ Al-Falah 22/22 strategies, which focus on optimizing the treatment of palm oil mill effluent and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Partner, Sharizan Sarif, along with Associates, Umar Izat Nubli and Asiah Siddiqah Abdurrahman, provided legal services to TH Plantations Berhad throughout the formation of this joint venture.

Azmi & Associates takes pride in supporting ventures that contribute to sustainable development and environmental preservation.
