This marks the first instance of four ASEAN nations engaging in multilateral crossborder electricity trade . The government intends to explore interconnection collaborations with countries like Thailand and Indonesia .
In Sarawak , the installed capacity under Sarawak Energy totals approximately 5,600 MW across Sarawak , with 3,500 MW of hydropower . Some of this renewable energy is anticipated to develop domestic industry under the
Sarawak Corridor of Renewable Energy ( SCORE ) initiative in Samalaju Industry Park , intended to attract energyintensive heavy industries .
Given the deep potential for hydropower production in this region , Sarawak is also looking to export its energy to surrounding countries which include Indonesia , Brunei , and Singapore . There is currently one export link to export 200 MW to West Kalimantan ( Indonesia ), and there are early discussions on building transmission lines to export to other industry centres in Borneo . •
