ENGIE and Gamuda Land partner to accelerate sustainable township development in Malaysia

MALAYSIA, 5 September 2023 — ENGIE, a global leader in low-carbon energy and services
and Gamuda Land Sdn. Bhd. (Gamuda Land), one of Malaysia's leading property developers,
today announced a strategic partnership to accelerate the development of sustainable townships
in Malaysia.

Under the partnership, ENGIE Services Malaysia and Gamuda Land will collaborate on the
exploration and implementation of solar technologies, energy efficiency, and sustainable
transportation solutions in Gamuda Land’s townships. This includes the development of rooftop
solar installations and green transportation infrastructure for the townships of Gamuda Cove in
Kuala Langat, Gamuda Gardens in Rawang, and twentyfive7 in Kota Kemuning, all in Selangor,
by 2024.

“We are excited to partner with Gamuda Land to advance the development of sustainable
townships in Malaysia,” said Thomas Baudlot, CEO Energy Solutions APAC and Country Head

Southeast Asia at ENGIE South East Asia. “This partnership is a testament to how the association
between the right partners can help streamline, accelerate, and amplify what is possible in the
realm of sustainable development. We look forward to helping Gamuda Land realise the ambitious
sustainability targets of their Gamuda Green Plan and to building a better future together.”

The partnership is aligned with Gamuda’s sustainability framework, Gamuda Green Plan, that is
built on an Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Framework that charts tangible targets
for the company to reduce its carbon emissions intensity by 30% by 2025 and by 45% by 2030.

Gamuda Land’s Chief Executive Officer, Chu Wai Lune said, “We designed and planned our
townships with a target to achieve at minimum a 30% overall reduction in carbon emission as
compared to the business-as-usual design. As such, Gamuda Land is always on the lookout for
innovative ideas and methods that can be implemented to increase the sustainability of our
townships. This partnership with ENGIE will serve as a springboard for us to pursue a wider scope
of energy efficient opportunities that can complement our carbon reduction efforts.”

Gamuda Cove, Gamuda Gardens and twentyfive7 have achieved five, four and three-diamond
recognition accordingly in the Low Carbon City Framework Design by the Malaysian Ministry of
Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change. Gamuda Cove is the first private township
to receive this recognition.

ENGIE Services Malaysia and Gamuda Land signed their MoU in Kuala Lumpur earlier this year
solidifying their partnership on sustainable development and marking a significant milestone in
their commitment to advancing a low-carbon future together.
