BGRIM expands data centres and Malaysia gas, while PDP2026 promises PPA extensions
BGRIM signs GE Vernova deals for 750 MW Malaysia gas plant BGRIM signed two agreements with GE Vernova: one to supply a gas turbine for a new 750 MW combined-cycle plant in Malaysia, and a 14-year service contract for five turbines at its Thai plants. This secures equipment and long-term maintenance, supporting future earnings and share price.
This is a concrete new project that expands BGRIM's overseas capacity and locks in operational efficiency.
BGRIM and Siam Piwat target 300 MW clean power via TPA BGRIM signed an MOU with Siam Piwat to develop up to 300 MW of clean power trading through the Third Party Access system. They also started a rooftop solar project at Siam Paragon. This opens a new business channel and supports BGRIM's renewable growth target.
It is a new partnership that could lead to future contracts and revenue from clean energy trading.
PDP2026 draft allows 7-year PPA extensions for existing plants The draft Power Development Plan 2026 may let existing power plants extend their power purchase agreements by seven years. BGRIM has proposed extending 22 projects (about 3,000 MW). This would secure long-term revenue and cash flow without major new investment, supporting the stock.
It directly addresses a key risk—PPA expirations—and enhances the value of BGRIM's existing assets.
BGRIM plans 250 MW data centre, raises 2030 target to 500 MW BGRIM will invest in a new 250 MW data centre with a foreign partner, lifting its 2030 data centre capacity target to 500 MW from 300 MW. It is also studying projects in South Korea and Japan. This reflects growing demand from AI and digital infrastructure, a positive for the share price.
It is a major new investment that expands BGRIM's data centre footprint and future revenue potential.
