Community Engagement
Our CSR efforts are driven by our endeavours to create positive, meaningful impact in the communities we serve. As a clean energy solutions provider, we recognise that our long-term success is closely tied to the wellbeing of society and the environment.
Entrepreneurial Development
Malaysia’s entrepreneurs are generating innovative ideas across industries, yet limited funding and early-stage support remain key barriers to commercial success. Recognising this gap, we are dedicated to strengthening the entrepreneurial ecosystem in Malaysia.
In 2021, Solarvest launched the Solarvest Innovation Lab as a platform to support emerging entrepreneurs, particularly in sectors with considerable potential for positive impacts, such as green technology, financial technology and clean energy.
Community Empowerment
Not only driving CSR initiatives across education, entrepreneurship, donations and sponsorships, Solarvest is also championing environmental stewardship to promote sustainability, raise awareness, and support the low-carbon transition.
Mangrove Planting
Solarvest launched its mangrove conservation initiative in 2022 as part of its long-term sustainability journey. Since then, over 2,450 saplings have been planted across Langkawi and Kuala Selangor. Mangrove restoration helps protect the coastline and sustain the community’s ecotourism livelihood.
Solarvest Electrifies Orang Asli Villages with Off-grid Solar and Battery Systems
