Advancing sustainable finance to power Malaysia’s renewable energy transition
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 26 June 2026 — Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad (“Bank Islam” or “the Group”) announced the successful issuance of the inaugural RM150.0 million tranche under Ditrolic Energy Holdings Sdn Bhd’s (“Ditrolic Energy”) Sukuk Wakalah Programme on 5 June 2026. The issuance marks a significant milestone in Ditrolic Energy’s expansion and reflects continued market appetite for Shariah-compliant sustainable financing.
The issuance forms part of Ditrolic Energy’s Sukuk Wakalah Programme of up to RM300.0 million. Structured based on the Shariah principle of Wakalah Bi Al Istithmar, the programme’s inaugural RM150.0 million tranche was subscribed by Bank Islam.
The programme will support Ditrolic Energy’s continued growth as a renewable energy infrastructure platform through the development and expansion of renewable energy assets, energy storage systems and integrated low-carbon energy projects across the region. It will also strengthen the company’s working capital flexibility, enabling it to accelerate the execution of its project pipeline as it expands its footprint across Southeast Asia.
Bank Islam Group Chief Business Officer – Institutional Banking, Sharifah Sarah Syed Mohamed Tahir, said the sukuk issuance highlights the Bank’s strategic focus on renewable energy and sustainable infrastructure, in line with national and global sustainability priorities.
“The issuance is also a step forward in expanding Bank Islam’s sustainable finance portfolio, particularly in green and transition assets, while reinforcing its leadership in Islamic finance through the Value-Based Intermediation platform.
“The financing will support Ditrolic Energy’s expansion of its solar portfolio and strengthen its capacity to deliver clean energy solutions, contributing to Malaysia’s energy transition through increased renewable energy adoption, lower carbon emissions and the development of sustainable infrastructure,” she said.
Ditrolic Energy Group Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Tham Chee Aun, said the transaction represents a key milestone in the company’s long-term growth strategy.
“The establishment of the RM300.0 million Sukuk Wakalah Programme provides a strong foundation to support Ditrolic Energy’s continued expansion as a renewable energy infrastructure platform. We are pleased to partner with Bank Islam on the inaugural RM150.0 million issuance, which reflects confidence in our business model, project pipeline and long-term vision.
“The funding will enable us to accelerate the deployment of renewable energy and integrated low-carbon infrastructure solutions across the region while strengthening our ability to support customers in their decarbonisation journey.
“As demand for sustainable and resilient energy infrastructure continues to grow, we remain committed to delivering innovative solutions that contribute meaningfully to the region’s energy transition and sustainable development goals,” he said.
