Sarawak plans to brand itself as 'Asia's Renewable Powerhouse' to enhance its presence in global sustainability efforts. The state aims to become a hub for energy transition and is focused on using carbon-free energy sources and reducing carbon emissions. Sarawak has the potential to generate 20GW of hydropower and plans to export energy to Brunei, Sabah, and Singapore by 2032.

KUCHING: Sarawak aims to boost its presence in global efforts towards sustainability by branding the state as"Asia's Renewable Powerhouse," says Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg.

Abang Johari said Sarawak had the potential to generate 20 gigawatts of hydropower, while its current capacity of 5.4GW provided low-carbon energy to investors at competitive tariffs."Subsequently, we plan to export energy to Brunei and Sabah as well as 1GW to Singapore by 2032 via an undersea cable," he said.

In line with this, he said the relevant agencies had been directed to study the use of cascading dams for power generation as done in countries like Norway and Canada."The project will begin in Sungai Gaat, Kapit, with the agreement of the local community," he said.
