UES held a high-level meeting with PBAPP on October 6, 2025, to discuss a potential strategic collaboration in advanced water treatment technologies.
The meeting, led by the CEO of PBAPP, Dato’ Ir. Pathmanathan K, and senior executives from UES, focused on exploring partnerships in key areas critical to Penang’s long-term water security. These areas include advanced wastewater treatment, water reclamation (NEWater), and desalination.
This potential collaboration aims to leverage UES’s technical expertise and proven track record in delivering large-scale water infrastructure projects alongside PBAPP’s deep knowledge of Penang’s water supply landscape. The joint initiative is envisioned to support the state of Penang in diversifying its water resources, enhancing supply resilience, and meeting future water demands through sustainable and innovative solutions.
Both parties have agreed to proceed with further technical and feasibility studies to identify specific project opportunities.
