KUCHING: Welcome to the world of green energy in Sarawak! With Sarawak emerging as a major player in the field of renewable energy, the demand for skilled professionals in this sector is on the rise.
Fortunately, CENTEXS has introduced a specialised training programme in the field to support Sarawak’s emphasis on sustainability efforts to boost the economy while preserving the environment.

This programme can help cultivate skilled professionals in the field of green energy here, especially since Sarawak is now a major player in green energy. This will provide employment opportunities for the people and enhance Sarawak’s capacity to harness the potential of the renewable energy industry.

This field is relatively new in Sarawak, and initially, I didn’t expect to gain much experience or skills through this programme. However, after nearly two months in this programme, it has imparted a wealth of knowledge to me about solar energy, how we can harness electric power from solar and water sources, and insights into EVs and the green energy industry. At the same time, Centex’s offering of this programme aligns with Sarawak’s vision towards green energy.

Young people are encouraged to join this programme because it not only provides additional knowledge but also enhances our skills in the field of green and renewable energy. This programme doesn’t just teach us theory; students are also exposed to practical learning, such as how to design smart photovoltaic solar (PV) systems, batteries for EVs, and more.
