Kuala Lumpur: Black and Veatch, a global leader in human critical infrastructure solutions, will present solutions to accelerate Southeast Asia’s energy transition at the Energy Asia 2025 conference, taking place June 16 to 18 at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre. As geopolitical tensions rise and extreme heat waves become more prolonged, Malaysia and its Southeast Asian neighbours need energy transition solutions that will meet their economic and environmental targets.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, Black and Veatch is committed to drawing on its extensive sustainable infrastructure experience to help the region meet its growing energy demands with low- and zero-carbon energy sources. Jerin Raj, the managing director for Asia Pacific, stated the company’s dedication in a recent announcement.

As part of this initiative, Anand Pattani, vice president and managing director for International Energy Majors, will address the evolving role of traditional refiners in a low-carbon future at the conference in Malaysia. Pattani will outline practical strategies-globally informed but regionally adapted-for overcoming regulatory, technical, and financial barriers in the refining sector.

Black and Veatch has been involved in Malaysia’s power sector since the 1990s. The company has contributed expertise across project planning, resource allocation, and execution, all while aligning with the nation’s sustainability priorities of carbon reduction, efficiency, and green development.
