LIMBANG
8 SEPTEMBER 2026
Sarawak Energy will carry out a scheduled shutdown of the Bunut-Lawas 275kV Transmission Line (Line 1) from 9 to 20 September 2026 to facilitate repair works for the Medamit-Lawas 275kV Transmission Line.
During this period, electricity supply to Limbang and Lawas will remain uninterrupted, as power will be supplied through the Bunut-Limbang and Limbang-Lawas 275kV Transmission Line (Line 2).
The scheduled works are necessary to safely complete repair works and support the smooth operation of the transmission infrastructure. Sarawak Energy will closely monitor the network throughout the shutdown period and have the necessary response measures in place.
Any unplanned interruption affecting Line 2 throughout this period may result in a temporary impact to supply in Limbang and Lawas. Sarawak Energy will take all necessary measures to minimise any potential disruption.
Sarawak Energy appreciates the public’s understanding as these works are undertaken to strengthen the reliability and resilience of the electricity supply network in Northern Sarawak.
