Alcon Johor in partnership with Cleantech Solar.

Alcon is the global leader in eye care with a heritage spanning more than seven decades. The company offers a broad portfolio of products to enhance sight and improve people’s lives.

The Starting Point

The Malaysian government is seeking to increase the uptake of renewable energy national electricity mix. Being a market leader in its field, Alcon is committed to playing its part and is looking for solutions to contribute to the generation of clean energy.

The Result

Alcon signed a long-term power purchase agreement with Cleantech Solar in Malaysia for a 3.6 MW solar PV system. This project will enable the production of clean energy whilst helping Alcon reduce operating costs, without requiring any capital investment. Over 8,000 solar modules are fitted across the entire rooftop and the solar power plant is expected to generate over 4,000 MWh of clean energy per annum, which is equivalent to avoiding 2,400 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions.

“The Cleantech Solar team is professional and efficient. The project management team has also made sure that our daily operations go on smoothly throughout the installation period. Technical challenges are resolved quickly and meticulously by the team. We at Alcon are very proud of our decision to go solar and it is an excellent choice to embark on this journey with Cleantech Solar.”
Dr. James Jeyadeva Govindasamy, General Manager, Alcon
