Edmund Loo continues to make a meaningful impact in Malaysia’s renewable energy sector as Chief Executive Officer of SimpliSolar | LeveragEdge Sdn. Bhd., leading the company’s growth in solar photovoltaic (PV) solutions, energy efficiency, and sustainable energy innovation.
As the founder of LeveragEdge Sdn. Bhd., the company behind the SimpliSolar brand, Edmund brings more than 17 years of experience in Malaysia’s solar engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning (EPCC) industry. Through his entrepreneurial vision and commitment to clean energy, he has helped transform the business from a start-up into a trusted provider of end-to-end solar solutions for residential, commercial, and industrial customers.
Throughout his leadership journey, Edmund has overseen more than 650 projects nationwide, with over 80 MWp of solar capacity designed and more than 30 MWp installed. These achievements reflect the company’s growing capabilities and its contribution to Malaysia’s renewable energy landscape. SimpliSolar’s reported performance also highlights a strong commitment to operational excellence, including zero major safety incidents, a client retention rate exceeding 95% for operations and maintenance contracts, and an estimated 150,000 tonnes of avoided carbon dioxide emissions.
Beyond project delivery, Edmund remains focused on strengthening the company’s long-term competitiveness. His strategic priorities include expanding battery energy storage system (BESS) integration, advancing digitalisation, and improving operational processes to enhance efficiency and support sustainable business growth. By investing in these areas, he aims to position SimpliSolar to respond to evolving customer needs and the increasing demand for reliable, efficient, and environmentally responsible energy solutions.
Edmund also recognises that sustainable expansion requires more than technical expertise. Strong governance, organisational development, and effective internal systems are essential to building a resilient business. Through continued improvements in organisational capabilities and institutional readiness, he is preparing SimpliSolar for its next phase of development, with initial public offering (IPO) readiness forming part of the company’s broader long-term agenda.
Partnerships remain another important element of his leadership approach. By collaborating with global Tier-1 manufacturers and aligning business operations with Malaysia’s energy transition ambitions, Edmund continues to strengthen the company’s ability to deliver dependable solar solutions. His leadership brings together technical knowledge, commercial strategy, team development, and a clear focus on measurable sustainability outcomes.
As Malaysia continues to explore cleaner and more efficient energy alternatives, Edmund’s entrepreneurial journey demonstrates how industry experience, strategic planning, and a commitment to innovation can create lasting value. His focus on operational excellence and responsible growth reflects a broader vision of making renewable energy more accessible while supporting businesses in their sustainability goals.
Wishing Edmund Loo and the entire SimpliSolar | LeveragEdge Sdn. Bhd. team continued success as they pursue new milestones and contribute to Malaysia’s evolving clean energy future.
