Singapore, 26 October 2026 – DBS Bank, Malayan Banking Berhad and the International Finance Corporation signed a memorandum with Ditrolic Energy to develop a financing and bankability framework for the US$6 billion Southern Johor Renewable Energy Corridor. The solar-and-battery initiative has received booking interest for nearly 90% of its proposed green-power capacity, according to the project developer.
