Sultan Ismail Power Station Decommissioned After 33 Years

01/01/2020

South East Asia’s first combined-cycle power station, the Sultan Ismail Power Station (SIPS) in Paka, Terengganu has been decommissioned on 31st December 2019, after 33 years of operation.

The decommissioning is inevitable as Malaysia is replacing its ageing and inefficient power plants to be more advanced, cost efficient and environmental-friendly plants, in line with best practices in the global electricity supply industry.
