Malaysia's biggest independent power producer Malakoff Bhd, may build another power plant in Johor to meet future power demands of the state. The new plant will be adjacent to the existing Tanjung Bin power plant, which is owned by Tanjung Bin Power Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of Malakoff. It is expected to start commercial operation on March 1, 2016. As per btimes.com, the plant will be located in Johor to supply power to existing industries, but priority may be given to the upcoming petrochemical complex to be built by Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas). In May, Petronas announced plans to set up a RM60 billion refinery and petrochemical integrated development roughly the size of Singapore in Pengerang, southern Johor, by 2015.
