Solarvest Holdings Berhad (“Solarvest”) has announced a strategic partnership with Asia OneHealthcare group (A1Health), to accelerate renewable energy adoption in Malaysia’s healthcare sector.
As part of this collaboration, the leading clean energy infrastructure developer will install solar photovoltaic (PV) systems across Ara Damansara Medical Centre, Bukit Tinggi Medical Centre, ParkCity Medical Centre and Subang Jaya Medical Centre, hospitals under the A1Health. Both organisations are also actively exploring further nationwide expansion.
This collaboration builds upon Solarvest’s strong track record in the industry, having successfully developed solar infrastructures across 14 hospitals under A1Health, including 10 Columbia Asia Hospitals and now four (4) Hospitals including Ara Damansara Medical Centre, Bukit Tinggi Medical Centre, ParkCity Medical Centre and Subang Jaya Medical Centre.
With additional 611 kWp solar installation, the four (4) hospitals are expected to generate close to 800,000 kWh of clean energy annually. To date, A1Health has a cumulative solar PV generation of over 5,000,000 kWh, further reinforcing its commitment as in renewable energy solutions for healthcare industries.

These transition to solar energy is projected to deliver cost savings of more than RM2.7mil, while reducing approximately 3,200 tonnes of carbon emissions by per year.
Executive Director and Group Chief Executive Officer of Solarvest, Davis Chong Chun Shiong added, “Healthcare facilities operate around the clock, consuming 2-3 times more electricity than commercial buildings, making energy efficiency critical for operational resilience and sustainability. As the Malaysian healthcare sector accounts for approximately 5% of the country’s total electricity demand, our collaboration with A1Health highlights our commitment in advancing clean energy adoption across the healthcare sector and beyond. By integrating clean energy infrastructure into the healthcare industry, hospitals can reduce electricity costs by up to 30% while significantly reduce carbon emissions by thousands of metric tons annually. This initiative not only enhances operational efficiency for hospitals but also sets a precedent for a greener, more sustainable healthcare future.”
Group Head, Marketing, Communications & Sustainability of A1Health, Mandy Phang shared, “Our partnership with Solarvest marks a significant step in integrating renewable energy solutions into our operations, reinforcing our commitment to reducing carbon emissions and driving long-term cost efficiencies. Together, we are strengthening our environmental responsibility and ensuring a more sustainable healthcare ecosystem that benefits our patients, staff, and the communities we serve.”
The integration of solar PV systems in healthcare facilities not only reduces reliance on conventional energy sources but also sets a new benchmark for sustainability-driven healthcare operations, delivering long-term environmental and financial benefits.
Through this collaboration with A1Health, Solarvest continues to drive energy transformation and remains committed to empowering industries across Malaysia, supporting the nation’s goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.
