These orders related to Package 4 (station & operations control centre) and Package 6 (depot & power supply) are collectively valued at RM9.27 mil.
A pivotal infrastructure project, the RTS Link will enhance connectivity between the Wadi Hana Depot and Bukit Chagar in Johor Bahru and Woodlands in Singapore.

The government’s investment in infrastructure and development projects such as the RTS Link underscores a broader ambition to strengthen Malaysia’s regional ties and drive its economic resurgence. Leveraging its profound power control and distribution expertise, Powerwell is poised to be a cornerstone in this endeavour.
“As an infrastructural undertaking, the RTS Link demands intricate and robust power set ups, of which Powerwell’s innovation can ensure timely project roll-outs with enduring operational excellence, hence reinforcing that superior power control is essential for successful infrastructure advancement,” added Wong.
