KOTA KINABALU: Power disruptions in east coast Sabah are expected to reduce with the launching of Sabah Electricity’s Battery Energy Storage System Lahad Datu (BESS Lahad Datu), says Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor.
“The success is an important milestone for Sabah as BESS Lahad Datu is the biggest energy storage facility not only in the country but in South East Asia, designed to enhance grid stability, reduce dependence on diesel and support renewable energy integration in the state,” he said.
