KUALA LUMPUR: NCT Group has collaborated with three new partners in preparation for its upcoming Selangor Smart Industrial Park (SSIP) project.
It signed memorandums of understanding (MoU) with AGV Environment Sdn Bhd (AGVE) and Darco Water Systems Sdn Bhd (Darco) respectively as well as a collaboration agreement with Pestech Energy Sdn Bhd (Pestech).
NCT Group founder and managing director Datuk Sri Yap Ngan Choy said the partnerships would position SSIP as a top-of-mind choice for potential investors.
"The MoUs and collaboration agreement will enable us to tap into the expertise of our partners to offer the best features while catering to the evolving industry needs.
"It is our commitment to ensure that SSIP is conducive and equipped with complete, future- ready infrastructure, utilities, and amenities to attract foreign and domestic investments with a view to long-term sustainable business operation, he said in a statement.
NCT Group inked an MoU with AGV Environment to collaborate on technical knowledge and best practices to jointly develop a sustainable eco-industrial park.
The MoU will provide an opportunity for both parties to create awareness and position SSIP as an eco-friendly development particularly for Selangor.
"Evolving environmental, social and governance (ESG) practises necessitate customised sustainable solutions to support environmental stewardship, social equity, and moving toward net zero," said AGV Environment chief executive officer Datin Dr Vijayalakhsmi Samuel.
A collaboration agreement with Pestech was to jointly drive decarbonisation ambitions of both parties to reduce industrial and commercial carbon footprint.
The pact includes the provision of charging infrastructure for electric vehicles at the SSIP.
"This will form part of the growing network of EV charging stations managed by Pluginfinite," said NCR Group.
Pluginfinite is Pedtech's electric vehicle (EV) charging management platform that helps operators monitor and manage EV charging networks in real-time.
