In December, Malaysia boosted natural gas power generation by nearly 5%, compensating for a 4.3% drop in coal-fired output, as natural gas supplied a significant portion of electricity to Peninsular Malaysia. Despite this increase, projections indicate that coal's share in power generation will rise from 56.5% in 2024 to 58.6% in 2025, while natural gas is expected to decline to 33.1%. Additionally, solar power generation grew by 12.6%, increasing its share to 2.4%.
