Towards a Greener Future

At JSR Charcoal, we’re proud to take a bold step toward a greener future with an ESG-driven renewable energy initiative. Designed to reduce our environmental impact and support cleaner energy goals, this project reflects our commitment to sustainable progress in everything we do.

From how we source materials to how we manage production, we’re making conscious choices that align with Malaysia’s transition to green energy. This long-term initiative will be rolled out in phases, with a targeted launch in 2028.

Be Part of Our Green Journey

As we expand, we’re looking for talented individuals passionate about sustainability, engineering, and innovation. Whether you’re an engineer, technician, or fresh graduate eager to be part of the clean energy future—we invite you to grow with us. Apply here!

Together, we’re building a cleaner, more responsible future—one step at a time.

Aligned with Malaysia’s National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR)

Four Key Principles

Based on national aspirations and commitments

Just, inclusive, and cost-effective

Effective governance and whole-of-nation approach

High-impact job opportunities, SME involvement in the ecosystem

Guided by the four key principles of the NETR, we proudly support this mission to push toward cleaner, smarter, and more sustainable energy solutions.

How Our Project
Supports National Goals

Cleaner Energy for Malaysia

By turning sawdust waste into clean-burning syngas, our system helps reduce the country’s dependence on fossil fuels. This supports the government’s long-term goal of building a greener, more sustainable energy mix.

Boosting Renewable Energy Development

Our biomass gasification project adds renewable energy capacity to the national grid. As part of Malaysia’s commitment to the National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR), it contributes to the country’s target of 70% renewable energy capacity by 2050.

Improving Energy Efficiency
& Circular Use

The system maximises every part of the production process—recycling heat, reducing waste, and producing both power and charcoal from the same source. It’s a smart, circular approach that supports a more efficient national energy system.

Tech-Forward & Locally Driven

Our facility in Semenyih uses locally built machines and materials—and we’re exploring ways to make the system even smarter with digital monitoring and AI optimisation in the future.

Creating Local Impact

Creates direct technical jobs and supports local SMEs in logistics, fabrication, and maintenance.

As we continue to grow, we remain committed to responsible innovation, local empowerment, and making a positive impact that lasts.

This is just the beginning of our journey toward a cleaner future—for our business, our communities, and the world.
