Two power plants were developed by YTL Power Generation Bhd. Sdn. that had a combined capacity of 1212-MW, or 808-MW (2x404-MW) at Paka and 404-MW (1x404-MW) at Pasir, respectively. IPP licenses for both plants were granted in April 1993 with construction beginning later that year. The plants went into service in 1994.

The state-controlled Tenaga Nasional Bhd. relinquished its 4.4% stake by selling 71 million shares in December 2003 to YTL Power, and in March 2004 it sold 19.7 million more shares to EPF. Project costs were US$836 million for Paka and US$416 million for Pasir Gudang., or a total cost of M$2.66 billion in local currency. M$1.5 billion was raised via bond subscription with the Employment Provident Fund (EPF) and M$1.16 billion was raised via a syndicated bank loan.
