Pengerang power plant likely to supply electricity to S’pore

PETALING JAYA: There is a possibility that the sale of electricity to Singapore may come from a power plant to be built at Petroliam Nasional Bhd’s (Petronas) refinery and petrochemical integrated development (Rapid) complex in Pengerang, Johor.

While details on the sale were scarce at press time, sources told StarBiz that the electricity might come from Petronas’ planned power plant, which the state-owned oil firm’s executive vice-president for gas and power business Datuk Anuar Ahmad said last November was required for the Rapid project.
