Sunview Group Berhad, through its subsidiary Sunview Builders Pte. Ltd., has won a €15.6 million contract from OKOP Solar EOOD, a Bulgarian solar energy company. This contract covers the engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning (EPCC) of a 20MW(ac) solar photovoltaic power plant in Bulgaria. The project marks Sunview's inaugural EPCC venture in Europe, aligning with the company's strategic expansion plans into the European renewable energy market.
HP Ong, Executive Director and Group CEO of Sunview Group, emphasized the significance of this contract as a major milestone for the company.

This project is part of a broader strategy to diversify Sunview's portfolio and leverage its expertise in solar energy projects on an international scale. By securing this contract, Sunview aims to build a solid foundation for future projects and collaborations within the European renewable energy sector.
