KOTA KINABALU: The energy sector will continue to play a critical role in Sabah’s future economic development, said Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor.

He said the State Government had launched the Sabah Energy Roadmap and Master Plan 2040 (Sabah Energy Ramp 2040), which was aimed at charting the way forward and outlining key priorities for the state energy sector.

“With this in place, Sabah should be able to fully develop its green energy sector with the potential of providing up to 75 per cent of the nation’s green energy supply.

“The State Government looks forward to the continued cooperation and support of all stakeholders in driving Sabah towards a greener and more sustainable future,” he said at the Sabah Renewable Energy Conference 2025: Corridor to Transform Vision to Reality (Sarec 2025) here on Thursday.

Finance Minister Datuk Seri Masidi Manjun delivered his speech.
