KUALA LUMPUR: Siemens Malaysia plans to further expand its scope of activities and investment in Sarawak, with a particular focus on gas-based power generation.

President and chief executive officer Prakash Chandran said Sarawak has huge potential and Siemens was well-positioned to be its preferred technology partner.

He said with the rapid growth plans that Sarawak had set for itself in the coming years, the demand for reliable and efficient power and energy would increase manifold.

“Having already established a market share in power transmission and distribution in Sarawak, we are keen to focus on gas-based power generation opportunities, addressing the specific needs of the state with our comprehensive range of gas turbine technologies, designed for efficiency and reliability,” he said in a statement yesterday.

“Together with the Sarawak government, we can make real what matters to the local communities.

“We are positioned along the electrification value chain with strong expertise in automation and digitalisation, creating value and increasing efficiency for our customers,” added Prakash.

Recently, a delegation from Siemens Malaysia Sdn Bhd called on Sarawak Chief Minister Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Tan Sri Adenan Satem to provide an overview of Siemens’ business operations and to update him of Siemens’ Malaysia’s current business activities in Sarawak.

In Sarawak, Siemens Malaysia is already working very closely with the state-owned utility company, Sarawak Energy Bhd, and is present at numerous power sites like the Samalaju, Samajaya, Similaju, PMU Tanjung Manis and others.

Siemens’ building management solutions can also be found on the campus grounds of the University College of Technology Sarawak and process industry solutions at the CMS Cement factory.
