KUCHING: Sarawak is exploring the potential of working with Singapore on exporting hydropower and attracting energy-intensive investments, says Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg.
"If they need more energy because of energy-intensive investments in Singapore, we can work together and they can position those investments in Sarawak.
He said this underlined the importance of education to produce qualified human resources for these jobs. "This initiative supports Singapore’s aspiration to reduce the carbon footprint of the power sector by importing 30% of its electricity from low-carbon sources by 2025," he said. Separately, Abang Johari said Sarawak aimed to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 600,000 tonnes annually.
