KUCHING: The blackout in Sarawak may have been triggered by a frequency drop originating from the Bakun hydro-electric plant, said Sarawak Energy Berhad (SEB)chief executive officer Torstein Dale Sjotveit.
He said the system trip led to a total failure of SEB's system and all its power stations were down, including at Sejingkat in Kuching, Batang Ai, the Mukah coal plant as well as the Bintulu and Miri gas plants.
