Just Energy Transition
Malaysia’s energy future is at a crossroads. Communities, workers, and the environment are already bearing the cost of our fossil fuel dependency, from polluted air and water to unstable livelihoods and climate disasters that hit the most vulnerable the hardest.
Yet, despite the urgency, national energy plans continue to prioritise gas as a so-called “transition fuel,” delaying the shift to clean, renewable solutions.
Our Approach
Our approach combines grassroots voices with strong policy advocacy to ensure the shift to renewable energy is not only fast, but fair for all.
Communities first
Amplifying voices from the ground, from coastal towns to rural villages, ensuring Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) is respected in all energy projects.
Challenging harmful policies
Exposing the risks of gas as a “transition fuel” and pushing for energy policies that prioritise people and the planet over short-term profits.
Co-creating real solutions
Promoting community-led renewable projects and advocating for a national roadmap that phases out fossil fuels while protecting workers’ rights.
Our Projects
From amplifying community voices to shaping national policy, our projects are designed to prove that a clean energy future for Malaysia is not only possible, it’s already taking root.
Policy recommendations
Our roadmap challenges the government’s National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR) and National Energy Policy, proving Malaysia can leapfrog gas and move directly to renewables. Through evidence-based case studies, we show how false solutions harm progress and why a just, rights-based transition is essential.
Community storytelling
From resisting harmful gas pipeline expansions to embracing solar in Kelaik, we are amplifying real stories from those most affected. Communities are calling for FPIC in all energy projects and showing how solar power can bring lasting independence and security for the next generation.
