28,340 distribution substations, accounting for 34% of total distribution stations in Peninsular Malaysia. For our transmission network, we enhanced our Advanced Automatic Fault Analysis (AFA) system to improve response and restoration time during outages. Another aspect of developing the ET network is cross-border interconnections as they help in achieving ASEAN’s ET and decarbonisation targets. At TNB, we are constantly exploring opportunities to expand our regional interconnections through Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) with ASEAN neighbours such as Indonesia, Thailand, and Singapore. These agreements are strategic stepping stones towards the development of interconnection projects that are expected to strengthen the ASEAN power grid. A key milestone was achieved with the completion of a joint feasibility study with EGAT Thailand in 2023, paving the way forward for the expansion of the interconnectionbetween Peninsular Malaysia and Thailand. As a responsible grid owner, TNB carefully tracks and analyses electricity demands in anticipation of new and emerging economic growth in the country. In recent years, we have seen a significant surge in demand from hyperscale co-location data centres in Malaysia. In response to this growing market, we introduced the Green Lane Pathway in 2023 to fast-track the on-boarding process and significantly reduce the time taken for the supply connection of electricity to data centres. As of April 2024, we have managed to complete the power supply connection to 11 data centres totaling 1,156MW. In anticipation of increasing energy demands in the future, we identified hydrogen and energy storage as promising domains to be explored. Preliminary efforts to explore the adoption of these technologies in Malaysia were made such as advancing the studies for hydrogen business development and completing a feasibility study of potential sites for a large-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) flagship project in Malaysia by our Grid division. We have been making steady strides in
