KUCHING: Sarawak Energy will hold a 100 Years of Powering Sarawak exhibition at the Borneo Cultures Museum in Kuching from June 3 to July 15.
In 2021, the corporation marked a century of growth and transformation from a traditional utility into a vertically integrated power utility and the largest renewable energy developer in Malaysia.
At the exhibition, visitors will be brought through Sarawak’s electrification journey and the current initiatives to power a more sustainable and renewable energy future.
At a hybrid townhall event in February officiated by Premier of Sarawak, Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg, the organisation celebrated its transformational journey over the past century and provided a look forward into the next century of growth.
The exhibition also features a section of the Longest Woven Rug/Mat In The World as recorded by Guinness Book of World Records – an achievement by the Orang Ulu women weavers in Sarawak Energy’s project areas.
In support of the communities in Murum, Bakun and Baleh, there will be a special basket weaving and beadwork demonstration by women artisans on June 16 and June 20.
From a humble customer base of 84 customers in 1923, the corporation now serves a population of three million Sarawakians in urban and rural areas.
It also supplies bulk power to energy intensive and export customers through its 5,400 multidisciplinary workforces, making Sarawak Energy the largest employer of professional Sarawak talent.
