Premier Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg of Sarawak outlined the state's ambitious plans to become the 'Battery of ASEAN' by leveraging clean energy sources and enhancing cross-border energy connections. Sarawak is scaling up green hydrogen production and collaborating with countries like Japan, South Korea, and China to expand its hydrogen supply chain. Additionally, the state is integrating Carbon Capture Utilisation & Storage (CCUS) and ramping up low-carbon fuel production to decarbonize industries and support energy transition efforts. Initiatives such as the Sarawak Methanol Complex and the Green Methanol Plant aim to enhance sustainable fuel production and drive industrial growth. The state is also optimizing natural gas resources and utilizing biomass to produce biofuels and syngas, supporting industrial decarbonisation. These efforts align with Sarawak's Post Covid-19 Development Strategy (PCDS 2030), ensuring economic growth, energy security, and sustainability progress hand in hand.
