KUALA LUMPUR: NuEnergy Holdings Bhd (NHB) has secured a RM44.5mil contract for mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) works for a data centre project in Johor Bahru, marking its largest high-voltage project to date.
In a filing with Bursa Malaysia, NuEnergy said it had accepted a letter of award from a China-headquartered construction and engineering company for mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) works on a two-storey 265kV/11kV Consumer Landing Station Building for a data centre in Johor.
