SIBU: Sarawak is considering replanting its degraded forest with fast-growing tree species that can be used to produce renewable energy through biomass pellets.
"We can replant our degraded forest areas with new fast-growing species; that will become feedstock to produce pellets for us to produce power as an additional source for our grid," said Sarawak Premier Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg on Sunday night.
Abang Johari also mentioned that this would create an environmental cycle whereby Sarawak would replant its degraded forests to produce oxygen while the biomass pellet production would serve as an additional source of energy. "During my working visit overseas, I learnt that a factory in Norway turns dust from timber waste into wood pellets while the largest wood pellet station in London, England produces about 2,500 megawatts of energy," he stressed.
Amongst those present were Deputy Minister of Public Health, Housing and Local Government Michael Tiang Ming Tee; Consul General of the People's Republic of China in Kuching, Xing Weiping.
