Published on: Thursday, July 31, 2025 Published on: Thu, Jul 31, 2025 Text Size: KOTA KINABALU: Sabah Electricity (SE), in a statement on Thursday, welcomed the rescheduling of maintenance works at the Petronas-owned Sabah Oil and Gas Terminal (SOGT) from 1 August to 5 August this year. The adjustment allows two independent power producers (IPPs) more time to switch their operations from gas to diesel fuel. This transition process requires careful planning to maintain a stable electricity supply across the state. SE expressed appreciation for the cooperation shown by all parties involved in ensuring smooth preparations. It also hopes the IPPs will carry out their technical adjustments efficiently and on schedule to support system stability in Sabah. * Follow us on our official WhatsApp channel and Telegram for breaking news alerts and key updates! * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?

Load shedding to affect over 600,000 households in Sabah, Labuan
Published on: Thursday, July 31, 2025 Published on: Thu, Jul 31, 2025 By: Bernama Text Size: For illustrative purposes only. KOTA KINABALU: Load shedding operations will be carried out in Sabah and Labuan from Aug 1 to 7 due to scheduled maintenance work at the Sabah Oil and Gas Terminal in Kimanis, Papar, which is expected to affect over 600,000 households. Sabah Electricity Sdn Bhd chief executive officer Datuk Mohd Yaakob Jaafar said the maintenance work by Petronas will affect more than 200,000 domestic user accounts in Sabah and Labuan. Yaakob said the process would also cause inconvenience to users in both regions, particularly during peak hours from 10 am to 10 pm, during which each area will face supply disruptions lasting one to two hours on a rotational basis. 'Maintenance works on offshore and onshore platforms will cut off gas supply to two Independent Power Producers (IPPs) in Kimanis,' he said when contacted today. He said the two affected IPPs are the Kimanis power plant and the SPRE power plant, resulting in a loss of 195 megawatts of power in the Sabah grid system during the seven-day period. He added that initially, no power disruptions were expected during early discussions with Petronas and the Sabah Energy Commission early this year. 'However, based on information received on Tuesday (July 29), it was found that the power plants are unable to operate using alternative fuel,' he said. He also urged the public to refer to the company's Facebook page and the Sabah Electricity mobile app for more information on the load shedding schedule, including the times, dates and affected areas. * Follow us on our official WhatsApp channel and Telegram for breaking news alerts and key updates! * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?
