The Sabah Renewable Energy Conference (Sarec) 2025 has been positioned as a strategic platform to drive collaboration, innovation, and forward-looking policies for Sabah’s clean energy transition.

Qhazanah Sabah Berhad (QSB) Chairman Datuk Dr Yusof Yacob said Sabah’s rich renewable resources, such as solar, wind, and hydro, placed it uniquely to lead in clean, affordable, and sustainable energy development.

He emphasised that investing in renewable energy could stimulate economic growth, reduce carbon emissions, and enhance energy security while creating new industries and job opportunities.

However, he warned that the shift would require strong government leadership, innovative policies, and cross-sector collaboration to overcome infrastructure and investment challenges.

Sarec 2025, officiated on Thursday by State Finance Minister Datuk Seri Masidi Manjun on behalf of the Chief Minister, supports the Sabah Energy Roadmap and Master Plan 2040 and aims to unite key stakeholders in accelerating Sabah’s sustainable energy future.
